As for her younger brother Xing Dequan who has not yet been able to marry, and her younger sister Xing Alan who is still unmarried at home, Mrs.
If you treat your own siblings like this, you will naturally be even more indifferent to your children in the first marriage.
After Jia Lian was scolded by Jia She for no reason, he often had to be beaten by Mrs.
"I'll beat you up for your lack of filial piety! You even died for me. You just said a few words in vain and you complained. You're still not good. Watch carefully and I'll beat you in anger."
Mrs. Xing's stupidity and selfishness are famous in both houses.
Any money that goes in and out of her hands will be deducted without exception, and she never cares whether others live or die.
So even though she didn't do anything illegal, no one in the whole family looked down upon her except for the companion she brought from home.
Jia's mother was the daughter of Baoling Hou Shangshu Ling Shigong. She married into the Rongguo Mansion and was appointed by the Rongguo Duke; Mrs. Wang's grandfather was the governor of the Du Taiwei and the county uncle; Li Wan's father was the Imperial Academy's Jijiujiu, either a meritorious nobleman or a nobleman.
Civil servants are noble, have different backgrounds, have different experiences, and naturally have different circles.
Even an old lady like Mother Jia, who is accustomed to doing things thoughtfully, once wanted to get along with her daughter-in-law Mrs. Xing, and she once invited Mrs. Xing over when playing cards.
However, Mrs. Xing's money is all worn on the ribs, so it can only be worn upwards, not pulled downwards.
As soon as she got to the card table, Mrs. Xing was so nervous that her face was covered with sweat.
It doesn't matter if you win money, but if you lose money, even if it's only a few dozen cents, Mrs. In order to avoid each other's embarrassment, Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Xing kept a polite distance from each other. They said as little as possible and opened their mouth as little as possible.
If it hadn't been for Jia Lian today, the old lady wouldn't have said two sentences to Mrs. Xing in a row.
Of course, there will be no embarrassment later.
.
When Jia Lian saw it, he became cold and quickly said to Jia Mu:
"My grandson has a problem, please give me some advice."
Jia Mu saw that Jia Lian was smart and used this to resolve the embarrassment, so she followed his words and asked:
"Come and take a look. If you are in trouble, I will make the decision for you."
Jia Lian found it difficult to do so and frowned:
"My grandson came back from Suzhou and brought two rare and good things to the old lady, and he spent a lot of thought on them.
But in the south, he met Mr. He, who was in charge of the Grain Road Yamen. He was a disciple of the Shihou family. He knew that the old lady liked 'Hui Embroidery' the most, so he tried his best to get one.
Logically speaking, one should put others before oneself. Someone asked me to bring the ‘Hui Embroidery’ that I found with great difficulty to honor the old lady, so I should take it out first.
But as soon as the old lady saw 'Hui Xiu', she would definitely have no intention of looking at her grandson's filial piety. Wouldn't that mean that her grandson would be at a loss?
Alas - it’s really embarrassing.”
When Jia's mother heard that Jia Lian had brought "Hui embroidery", she was very happy and smiled from ear to ear.
Because there is an unexplainable reason:
When Jia's mother married into the Jia family, it was the time when the Jia family was at its peak. The house was filled with guests every day, and the family was extremely prosperous.
Jia's mother had a high level of knowledge in poetry, calligraphy and painting, so she had a special liking for "Hui embroidery" who was well versed in the beauty of calligraphy and painting. However, very few "Hui embroidery" survived. With the glory of Jia's family, there were only three
Only pieces.
But since the death of Daishan Gong, all the descendants of the descendants have become useless, and the family has been declining. More and more treasures have gone out, and less has come in. By last year, decent treasures were already in short supply, and Jia Mu had no choice but to give them away.
Two pieces of "Hui Embroidery" were presented to the emperor, leaving only a pair of sixteen-sword necklaces, which he kept by his side and couldn't put them down.
Only one of the three beloved objects is left, and not even one-third of the Jia family's inventory and banknotes are left. What's worse is that the Jia family's power and reliance in the past have not even been reduced to one-third.
Not a single one is left.
No one except Jia Mu can understand the pain and worry involved.
But now, someone has come to send "Hui Embroidery" again!
There are two more pieces of "Hui Embroidery", and someone in the Jia family has been promoted. This is a big good sign!
Perhaps, the Jia family will be prosperous again in the future. Isn’t this the greatest joy among great joys?
.
Jia Mu immediately smiled and said:
"Don't be embarrassed, bring them all together, I will definitely like them all!"
Jia Lian shook his head again:
"Everything I brought can be seen now, but you have to wait a while to see it again."
Jia Mu pointed at Jia Lian and laughed:
"You have a lot of work, you and Feng Yatou are really a pair of narrow-minded ghosts!"
After that, he said to Mrs. Wang:
"Speaking of which, since Feng Yatou went back to raise her baby, she has been by my side less, and I have been laughing less happily. I still really miss Feng Yatou. When she is pregnant, I can't take advantage of her. Please call her
When she comes out, I can’t live without her.”
Mrs. Wang responded with a forced smile and said:
"Girl Feng gave up her job. Fortunately, girl Bao took over. This child is practical and reliable. I see that Sister Feng is not as good as her."
Jia Lian was displeased. Just as the gifts had been brought in from outside, Jia Lian directly held the Hui embroidered inkstone screen inlaid with rosewood in front of Jia Mu and said with a smile:
"This is the Picture of Two Wild Geese. I heard it was the last piece of embroidery embroidered by Hui Niang, and it is very precious."
As expected, Mother Jia's eyes were immediately attracted to the inkstone. She ignored Mrs. Wang's words and held the inkstone in both hands. She praised it and couldn't put it down.
Jia Lian succeeded in making Mrs. Wang, who spared no effort to praise Baochai, praise her lonely.
.
Jia Mu looked at it with a smile for a long time, and suddenly sighed:
"This is indeed the last piece of embroidery embroidered by Hui Niang.
Look at the wild goose flying behind. The stitching in the upper part is extremely delicate, but in the second half, it gradually becomes different.
And the most different thing is the goose foot. The stitching method is very different. Alas - I'm afraid it was embroidered by someone else on her behalf."
Everyone in the room praised Jia Mu for her sharp eyesight, but Jia Lian secretly praised Qingwen.
This little girl is really amazing!
The Hui embroidery she imitated was so fake that even Jia’s mother couldn’t tell the authenticity.
What's even more amazing is that this girl even imitated Hui Niang's acupuncture techniques exactly after she fell ill. Who can compete with this beautiful body?
.
Mrs. Wang felt a little unhappy, so she calmly said to Jia Lian:
"The old lady has said that she will like whatever you give her. It seems that no matter what you give her, the old lady seems to like this beautiful embroidery and can't put it down."
