Scroll C, Section 27: Six Entering Jia's Mansion (Part 2)
Feng Ziying knew it well, but she still said seriously: "Huang Shilang and Uncle Shi are somewhat similar in temperament. They work seriously and meticulously, and strive to be consistent..."
Jia Zheng was overjoyed and then a little confused. He was serious, meticulous, and consistent. Is it me? But if Ziying said yes, then it must be.
Nodding reservedly, Jia Zheng said with emotion: "It was also when the Supreme Emperor took care of me that he directly rewarded my uncle with the post of chief minister. If not, I would have studied hard for a few more years and given it a try. It is hard to say whether I will be a Jinshi, but I can still be promoted.
It’s certain,…”
Jia Zheng is not a person who likes to brag, but sometimes he still has to be so arrogant. The person in front of him is a common scholar. If he is too different and is not regarded as a scholar, it is hard to say something.
.
After a while of greetings, Mrs. Wang was more cheerful and said with a smile: "Da Lang, the Jia and Feng families should be members of the same family. Thanks to Da Lang taking care of Baoyu in the past two years, Da Lang has now entered the Hanlin Academy, and there will be more in the future."
Take care of Baoyu. My aunt and your uncle have also discussed it. They also know that Da Lang only has one personal maid to serve you. My sister gave you the Xiangling a few days ago, but it is difficult to take good care of it.
So my aunt meant to give Dalang the two sisters Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er. Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er both grew up in our house. Although they are proficient in playing, playing, chess, calligraphy and painting, the female celebrity
But his housework is second to none, not to mention his appearance, Da Lang has already seen him..."
Finally it came. Feng Ziying had seriously thought about how to deal with this matter before, but after much deliberation she couldn't think of a good way to decline.
It is not uncommon for wealthy families to give maids and slaves as gifts in the capital and even south of the Yangtze River, and it is not uncommon for some who are interested in them to ask for them directly.
As Xiang Ling said, Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er are considered the most proud people around Mrs. Wang, especially Jin Chuan'er, who can be regarded as a first-class maid, and Caiyun, the other one, is regarded as the most caring person to Mrs. Wang.
This can be given to oneself proactively, which is basically the most sincere gesture of goodwill.
It's really hard for you to refuse this kind of kindness, otherwise it will either be regarded as humiliating, or it will show your attitude to draw a clear line with the Jia family, and this is not what Feng Ziying wants.
Moreover, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang are not like Xue Pan who can laugh and scold and get over it. They are so formal, which means that they have done enough in all aspects. It is estimated that this has spread throughout the Jia family, really.
If you refuse, you don’t know what kind of trouble it will cause.
In this case, Feng Ziying simply didn't want to think too much. They were just two maids. If they wanted it, they would take it. As for Mrs. Jia Zhengwang's love, I guess there would be more opportunities to repay her in the future.
After pretending to think, Feng Ziying stood up: "I dare not say goodbye to the gift from my elders. My uncle and aunt are so thoughtful, and my nephew is very grateful. After returning home, my nephew will definitely tell his mother about his uncle and aunt's thoughts..."
Seeing that Feng Ziying agreed calmly, Mrs. Wang also breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Feng Ziying's identity had changed now and her status was high, so she might not be willing to get too entangled with the Jia family anymore, but now it seems that the eldest son of the Feng family
I haven't contracted such arrogant habits yet.
"Jin Chuan'er, Yu Chuan'er!"
"Master, madam!"
The two girls came out of the back hall, bowed to Yingying and knelt down, but did not dare to raise their heads.
"Today you two will follow Da Lang back, and the deed has been completed. From today on, you two are members of the Feng family. I also taught you the day before yesterday that you must abide by the rules of whichever house you go to.
, don’t let the Feng family lose their face..."
Mrs. Wang's words made the two girls submissive. However, when the two girls stood up, their eye circles were mostly red. Even Feng Ziying was a little touched.
But what he felt was that two smart, well-behaved, charming and pretty girls wanted to be sent around like goods, without even asking for their opinions, yet they still wanted to thank them.
Things seem to be slowly becoming commonplace.
After the two girls retreated, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang began to continue the main topic.
Feng Ziying’s marriage events.
"Uncle Shi, aunt, Brother Lian has already told my nephew about this matter, but my master has also mentioned it to my nephew. The specific situation needs to be discussed with my father and mother. My mother has already written to my father. I'm afraid the specific matter
We have to wait until the end of the year to get a result."
This question cannot be avoided, but Feng Ziying does not want to make a sudden decision.
Whether it was the daughter of the Shen family, the daughter of the Xue family, or Sister Lin, Feng Ziying did not want to make a sudden decision.
It's just that Sister Lin's situation was due to her sudden change and Qiao Yingjia was involved, so she was currently riding a tiger. If it hadn't been for this matter, Feng Ziying would have preferred to wait until Daiyu grew up before making a rational consideration for both parties.
Daiyu is only twelve years old now. Although Feng Ziying still admires Lin Yatou in her heart, Feng Ziying always feels that it is a bit exaggerated to talk about marriage at this time. Marrying a wife is not as much as having a concubine, and there are not so many scruples. This involves the future of the house.
To achieve stability, one must be careful.
It was already September or October, and there was only a month or two before the end of the year. Feng Tang also needed to write to Qiao Yingjia to communicate.
Because it also involves Feng Qin's pursuit of the title of Marquis, if he wants to marry a daughter of the Shen family, then whether the daughter of the Shen family will marry into the first wife or the third wife will have to be considered.
Even Qiao Yingjia can't do everything, and may have to negotiate with Shen Jue, which will take time.
These days are no different than modern times. Even if I send a letter, it only takes a month or two for me to go back and forth.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang exchanged glances, and there was no sound from Jia Lian when they passed the letter. In fact, they had already foreseen this result.
The family background of the Xue family must have some influence. No matter how outstanding Baochai is, this is not a marriage for an ordinary family. When it comes to a family as big as the Feng family, they will definitely weigh the pros and cons, and in the past two or three months, I am afraid that Deng Feng
There are many people in the family, so the Feng family must be even more cautious.
I didn’t hear that Feng Ziying’s master also wanted to connect, but there was no result. Although Feng Ziying didn’t say who the master was, everyone knew that it was either Qi Yongtai or Qiao Yingjia, both of whom were big shots. So in this way, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang
I feel like I can accept it in my heart.
And if it is delayed until the end of the year, Wang Ziteng may become the governor of the three sides and become Feng Tang's immediate boss. That may be more advantageous.
If that doesn't work, let's consider Miss Lin's affairs again.
*********
When Feng Ziying left Jia Mansion, there was an extra carriage.
The anxious sisters crowded together tightly, letting the carriage sway and seem to be swaying into an unpredictable distance.
Jin Chuan'er couldn't remember exactly when her wife told her that she was going to give herself to the Feng family uncle. Well, she was completely confused at that time.
She knew very well that she was already relatively older among the maids at her age. In the entire Jia family, Yuanyang was probably the only maid older than her.
Not counting Ping'er, it was brought over by the Wang family.
Yuanyang, like her, was born in the same family. He has been in the Jia family from birth to growing up. Yuanyang followed the old lady, and she followed the lady. It was seven or eight years ago. If Baoyu hadn't been too young, Jin Chuaner probably would have died earlier.
It was pointed out to Baoyu.
Now that the attacker has occupied Baoyu's house, his wife has never said where she is going. Whether she is pointing out to Baoyu or to the boy in the house, Jin Chuan'er is not sure.
However, she thinks that she has done a good job beside her wife and should give herself a good ending in the end.
So when her wife came to talk to her specifically, she was still a little confused.
The wife told her three destinations.
One is to go to Baoyu's house, but that still has to wait four or five years. Baoyu is only thirteen years old, and she has to wait until she is sixteen or seventeen years old to get married, and she was already over twenty at that time.
It's a bit unimaginable among the maids.
One is to have a boy, and there are quite a few boys in the mansion now, such as the boys who follow the elders of each house, such as the ones around Second Master Lian, Zhao'er, and Long'er, who are all about the same age as her, and there are also those around the master.
But Jin Chuan'er has been with his wife for so long, and he has met some characters to some extent. To be honest, these boys don't like him at all.
It's just that a child from a family like her can't be redeemed as much as those who sell themselves in. If these two roads are cut off, Jin Chuan'er doesn't know where to go.
There were too many people in Baoyu House. Jin Chuaner knew that he was outstanding, but Xiren, Meiren and Qixie were also good, especially Xiren. If you wait another three to five years, who knows who would be
What kind of.
When her wife told her that she and her sister were going to be sent to the Feng family, she had no idea.
The wife almost spoke to her in a friendly manner that she had never seen before, at least until she was sixteen years old. She talked about the current difficulties of the Jia family and the scenery of the Feng family, even in a very vague way.
He mentioned that the Feng family and the Jia family might get married in the future. It seems that the two sisters should be considered as a front line.
This fact made Jin Chuaner very curious.
There are only two people in the Jia Mansion who can marry the Feng family uncle, the second girl and the third girl. The fourth girl is from the Ningguo Mansion. My wife will definitely not worry about it, but since she intends to marry the second girl and the third girl, why not earlier?
What about some suggestions?
Later, Jinchuaner finally understood that it would be difficult for the second and third girls to marry the Feng family uncle. If they were not born into the right mothers, the only ones left would be Miss Bao and Miss Lin.
Although it is unclear whether the final result will be Miss Bao or Miss Lin, Jin Chuan'er seems to have some expectations for her sister's future.
Especially when he felt the kindness and kindness of his wife when talking to him, and even in the end she even encouraged her and her sister to contact the house more and help talk, Jin Chuaner's heart was filled with longing.
