When everyone came to the second gate of Ning Guo Mansion, Qin Keqing got off the sedan and Qin Keqing walked out of the sedan. As soon as Jia Zhen saw Qin Keqing's face, she immediately froze. She almost drooled as she stared at Qin Keqing.
Qin Keqing's face turned red with embarrassment when he saw him, and she was already at a loss. How could she have imagined that the head of the dignified Jia family would be so miserable? Jia Ke knew that Jia Zhenguan would wallow in a crowd of women, but she didn't expect him
He was so rude, so he took two steps forward to stand between Jia Zhen and Qin Keqing, and snorted angrily. Only then did Jia Zhen wake up.
After Jia Zhen woke up, the first thing she saw was Jia Ke's angry eyes, and Jia Zheng next to her also had a look of displeasure.
Jia Zhen knew that she had gotten into trouble, but Qin Keqing was so beautiful that she couldn't control herself just now and showed her ugliness in front of everyone.
Youshi could see clearly from the side and knew that Jia Zhen had started to make old mistakes again, so she quickly smoothed things over and said, "Master, that slave made you so angry yesterday. Why are you still thinking about what happened yesterday?"
After you finished speaking, you said to Jia Zheng and Jia Ke: "Yesterday, a slave came to our master's study to steal something, and our master bumped into him. I originally wanted to drag this slave out and beat him to death. No.
The thought that this man turned out to be our grandma's nanny's son really made our master unable to do anything for a moment, so he has been in a daze since yesterday."
Jia Ke's face did not change because of her explanation, but he still stood there with a livid face. You must know that Jia Ke is now the foreman of a military aircraft. If someone with such power has been offended, how can he be able to get over it with just a few words?
of.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Ke's livid face from the side and coughed quickly to remind Jia Ke what he had to do today.
Jia Ke understood Jia Zheng's reminder and temporarily suppressed his anger. He thought that he would have the opportunity to teach Ning Guo Mansion a lesson and let him know the consequences of offending him.
At this time, Jia Zhen felt anxious and uneasy. Just now, he was so obsessed with showing his ugly face to his sister-in-law that he might have offended Jia Ke. She was really scared. What if Jia Ke took revenge on her after today and said that she was powerless?
A polished third-grade general would probably be thrown into the dust immediately.
Jia Zheng didn't care what Jia Zhen thought now and said directly to him: "Now that the ancestral hall is ready, let's get things done quickly. We still have things to do." It seems that he doesn't want to stay in Ningguo Mansion any longer.
Only then did Jia Zhen realize that she could only lead the way with a sad face, thinking about how to avoid the disaster.
Everyone soon arrived at the Jia's Ancestral Hall in Ningguo Mansion, where the main entrance was wide open. The inside of the ancestral hall had been cleaned, and everyone entered the ancestral hall. As the patriarch, Jia Zhen was naturally the officiant.
Jia Zhen first held the incense and chanted in front of the gods, then inserted the incense into the incense burner. Finally, she knelt on the futon in front and kowtowed three times to her ancestors.
Finally, Jia Zhen stood aside and said to Jia Ke and Qin Keqing: "The newlyweds will offer incense to their ancestors."
So Jia Ke and Qin Keqing kowtowed to their ancestors and offered incense. Then Jia Zhen took out the family tree enshrined from the table in the ancestral hall, turned to the branch of Rongguo Mansion, and wrote Qin Keqing's name under Jia Ke's name.
From then on, Qin Keqing was officially the mistress of Wuyang Hou Mansion.
Finally, Jia Ke and Qin Keqing saluted their ancestors again. All the procedures up to this point were completed.
After all the ceremonies were over, Jia Ke didn't want to stay any longer, so he told Jia Zheng that he wanted to go back to Rongguo Mansion. Jia Zheng knew the reason why he was leaving, thinking about Jia Zhen's rudeness just now, and didn't want to cause more trouble.
So he went back to Rongguo Mansion with them.
Jia Zhen was the only one left at the gate of Ningguo Mansion, regretful and thinking about how to settle this matter. Otherwise, it would definitely affect the relationship between Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion. You must know that Ningguo Mansion has declined, and Rongguo Mansion is now in decline because of
The emergence of Jia Ke returned to its heyday.
If the Ningguo Mansion were not attached to the Rongguo Mansion now, as a third-grade hereditary general, he might be able to hit anyone with a brick in the capital even more powerful than his officials. How could they have the power to call the shots now?
Just when Jia Zhen was worried and at a loss, Youshi's voice came from next to her: "Master, are you still worried about what happened just now?"
When Jia Zhen heard it was Youshi's voice, she immediately tightened her face and pretended to be serious. She said nonchalantly: "What worries do I have? It's just some small things, I can't make up my mind at the moment."
After Jia Zhen finished speaking, she wanted to walk into the mansion. Youshi followed him closely, and the two of them came to the flower hall of Ningguo Mansion.
Jia Zhen sat down in the middle. You ordered her maid to bring tea and brought it to Jia Zhen herself. Then she sat down next to him. Then she said to Jia Zhen, "Master, don't worry too much. I think
Look, if this matter spreads, it will be of no benefit to either of our houses. I think that as long as the uncle does not take any action, the Rongguo Mansion will suppress the matter."
Jia Zhen's eyes widened as soon as she heard this. What You said was indeed right. It is a good rule that a family's scandal should not be made public. I think if the Rongguo Mansion would not make a fuss about this matter.
But Youshi's next words dashed his hopes, "Although the Rongguo Mansion will not make a fuss about this matter, with Jia Ke's rights, he can find any reason to deal with the uncle. And there is no need to do so.
He personally came forward, and a group of people under him rushed to help vent his anger."
"Then what should you do?"
"The old lady has always made the decision in the Rongguo Mansion. Why don't you go and beg the old lady? As long as the old lady relaxes, you will be fine."
After hearing this, Jia Zhen felt that it made sense. Although Jia Ke held a high position outside, he still respected the old lady in the Rongguo Mansion. So Jia Zhen made up her mind and went to the old lady to give her a generous gift soon, and then
Please ask the old lady to mediate and calm down Jia Ke's anger.
Not to mention that Jia Zhen is trying to find ways to make amends here. Besides, Jia Zheng and Jia Ke returned to Rongguo Mansion. On the way back to the mansion, Jia Zheng said to Jia Ke: "Jia Zhen is indeed rude this time, but he is a member of the Jia family after all."
Patriarch, if you don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face, for the sake of all the ancestors, let him be spared this time.”
Jia Ke listened to Jia Zheng's plea for Jia Zhen, although he was reluctant. But Jia Zheng was Jia Ke's nominal father after all. He had already spoken, so what else could Jia Ke do? So he replied: "Then let's forget it this time.
If he comes to bother you again, I will give him a hard time." There was some dissatisfaction in his tone.
Jia Zheng heard that Jia Ke had agreed to let the matter go for the time being, so he said nothing more. After all, if Jia Zhen came to bother her again, even he would not let Jia Zhen off so lightly.
After they returned to Rongguo Mansion, Jia Zheng went to the study to chat with some Qing guests. But Jia Ke took Qin Keqing back to Rongxi Hall again. Going east, there are several small courtyards, one of which is particularly exquisitely decorated.
, this is the small courtyard where Jia Ke’s biological mother, Aunt Zhou, lives.
Jia Ke led the way, and Qin Keqing followed closely with a few maids. Although Qin Keqing had never been here before, she knew that she wanted to visit her serious mother-in-law, Jia Ke's biological mother.
As soon as Jia Ke and Qin Keqing entered the small courtyard, Xia Mai, who was waiting at the door, saw him. As soon as Xia Mai saw Jia Ke and Qin Keqing coming, he immediately shouted into the room: "Auntie, the uncle is here with the eldest grandma.
Already."
As soon as she finished shouting, the door curtain of the main room of the small courtyard was opened, and Aunt Zhou came out. When she saw Jia Ke and the others, she immediately smiled and walked forward quickly. When she came to Jia Ke and the others, she also
He ignored Jia Ke, pulled Qin Keqing directly into the house.
Qin Keqing didn't force herself, and with a smile on her face, she accompanied Aunt Zhou into the house. Jia Ke was left alone in the courtyard.
Just when Jia Ke was helpless because no one took care of him, Xia Mai came to him again with a group of maids to ask for a reward. Jia Ke helplessly said to her: "Xia Mai, are you obsessed with money?"
?Why do you never fail to ask for rewards?"
"Uncle, what are you talking about? Aren't you enjoying this happy day?" Xia Mai said with an innocent face.
Jia Ke could only helplessly take out a handful of golden melon seeds from his arms, put it into Xia Mai's hand, and then went in.
When they came into the room, Aunt Zhou was chatting happily with Qin Keqing. They were all talking about the embarrassing things that happened to Jia Ke when she was a child. She didn’t know where she was talking about. The two of them were laughing so hard. They were like mother and daughter, very close to each other. They were not as close as they had just met.
Qin Keqing did a very good job at this point. Whether he was dealing with superiors or subordinates, he was able to grasp the scale very well. Getting along with others gave people a feeling of a happy spring breeze. It only took a short time to
Captured Aunt Zhou's thoughts.
When Qin Keqing saw Jia Ke coming in, she smiled at him first, and then continued talking to Aunt Zhou, without neglecting Jia Ke.
Jia Ke went over and sat next to Qin Keqing, listening to their mother-in-law's chat and chiming in a few words from time to time.
Aunt Zhou chatted with Qin Keqing for a while, and seemed to remember something. She hurriedly went to the deepest part of the cabinet next to her and took out a small red satin bag. She carefully brought it to Jia Ke and Qin Keqing. After opening the small bag, she saw that there was a very small item inside.
A simple silver bracelet, some parts of the surface of the silver bracelet have turned black.
Aunt Zhou took the silver bracelet in her hand and stroked it carefully. It seemed to be something that Aunt Zhou valued very much. Aunt Zhou stroked it carefully for a long time before handing it to Qin Keqing and said: "This thing is not worth much to you."
, I didn’t want to show it out, but after all, it was a thought in our family that has been passed down for more than ten generations. Even when I was sold into slavery, I didn’t sell it.”
"Auntie, why have I never seen this bracelet before?"
"You were the scoundrel that you were when you were a child, and you didn't know how high the sky was. You knew it at that time, but you didn't take it out for pawns." Aunt Zhou was very critical of Jia Ke when she was a child.
Jia Ke also felt that he was wronged. When he was a child, that was the real Jia Ke. Since he came here, he has worked hard to make progress, otherwise he would not be where he is today.
Aunt Zhou ignored Jia Ke and handed the pair of silver bracelets to Qin Keqing. Qin Keqing knew that these were Aunt Zhou's favorite things and there was no way she dared to accept them, so she quickly rejected them.
"Don't be too busy to refuse. This thing has always been passed down in our family. Women don't wear men's clothes. I don't have a daughter in this life, so I will leave this thing in your hands. Although it is not a valuable thing, it has been passed down after all.
After more than ten lifetimes, it is still a memory left by the older generation. You just keep it and pass it on to the next generation. It can also be regarded as a memory I left for the future generations." Aunt Zhou knew that her identity could not be Qin Keqing's.
She was a serious mother-in-law, so she took out this thing, although it was not valuable, but it was the most precious thing to her and gave it to Qin Keqing. It could also be regarded as leaving a memory for future generations, so that future generations would not forget her.
