Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion

Chapter 59: Trivial matters during the New Year (please follow up)

In the original work of Red Mansions, the general trend of the entire court is relatively clear.

That is the process of the rapid decline of the Xungui Group and the further expansion of the power of the Civil Service Group.

It is very difficult to participate in the imperial examination as a descendant of a distinguished noble and enter the civil service.

Lin Daiyu's father, Lin Ruhai, was still at the peak of the Xungui Group when he rose to prominence, and with the strong support of the second generation Rongguo Gong Jia Daishan, it was easy for him to rise to the top.

But that's it. In the original novel Red Mansions, he was tortured to death in office. As a result, no matter whether it was the royal family, the court, or the civil service, who cared about the orphan Lin Daiyu he left behind?

Those fellow countrymen and teachers who were born in the same year did not show any expression at all.

Someone who is in a similar situation to Lin Ruhai is Jia Jing, a cultivator of immortality. Anyway, from the content of the original work of The Red Mansion, it is impossible to tell that he was born as a second-class Jinshi.

It is estimated that only after the Xungui Group has completely declined can the civil service group gradually accept the descendants of Xungui who have transferred from military to civil service.

In fact, we can get a glimpse of it from "Lan Gui Qifang". By the time Jia Huan came of age, the Xungui Group had completely declined, and it was just right for him to take the imperial examination at that time.

However, he himself was not willing to spend too much time pondering on stereotyped articles.

There is no need to explain this clearly to Mr. Zheng.

With the temper of Mr. Zheng, he is afraid that he will explode on the spot.

Fortunately, after communicating with some Qing guests, I can use these retainers to help persuade Master Zheng not to care too much about Jia Huan's actions.

No, they come in handy.

"Dong Weng, there are some things you want to say, do you know whether you should say them or not?"

After Jia Huan left the big study, a Qingke said in deep thought: "This matter concerns Mr. Huan!"

"Oh, sir, just say whatever you want!"

Mr. Zheng Er's anger had subsided at this time, and he spoke out of curiosity after hearing this.

"I think Mr. Huan's behavior is deliberately avoiding suspicion!"

Qingke said: "After all, he is just a concubine of a second wife. It is not a good thing to act too good!"

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zheng's expression was shocked and he fell into silence for a long time.

"So I think, as long as Mr. Huan doesn't go astray, there's no need to be too demanding!"

Qingke continued: "Besides, although Mr. Huan has close contacts with the market, some of the information he has learned will be of great benefit to Dong Weng!"

Mr. Zheng Er nodded gently to express his approval, and the matter ended there.

Even if he had any thoughts in his heart, he did not express them in front of outsiders.

As Qingke said, Jia Huan really can't be demanding at the moment.

There is a brother who is about the same age above him, and there is a nephew who is about the same age below. It can be said that there is no room for him to shine.

Once the performance is too good, the space of the two direct children will be squeezed. Neither Mr. Zheng nor Mrs. Wang want to see such a situation.

Mr. Zheng still has great expectations for Jia Baoyu.

He also attached great importance to Jialan's words, but he didn't show it.

The most important thing is that Mr. Zheng knows very well that Mrs. Wang will never tolerate Jia Huan being too good, especially in reading, and there is no room for relaxation at all.

After thinking about this clearly, Mr. Zheng was quite helpless, and that was all he could do for now.

Soon, the trivial matters of the New Year made Mr. Zheng have no time to pay attention to Jia Huan's affairs, and simply regarded it as acquiescing to his behavior.

Jia Huan is quite satisfied that Mr. Zheng can accept the reality calmly.

Naturally, the Qingke husband who helped speak received a New Year's red envelope worth ten taels of silver. Jia Huan asked himself that he was not a stingy person.

There is not much to say about the Chinese New Year, except that I have new clothes and better food.

He is still not qualified to go to Rongqing Hall to meet Jia Mu, and naturally he cannot get the red seal reward from Jia Mu from time to time.

It's a bit more troublesome to worship ancestors. You have to wait until the boss of the mansion has a sufficient level and returns from attending the New Year's banquet in the palace before you can worship your ancestors and eat.

Jia Huan deliberately walked up to Jia Lian and asked quietly: "Second brother Lian, don't you have the official title of Tongzhi? Why don't you go to the palace banquet?"

Speaking of which, the government's treatment of Jia Lian, the eldest son of the eldest son, was actually pretty good.

When he married Wang Xifeng, in order to be more dignified, the government gave Jia Lian the official title of Tongzhi, which was of course fictitious.

If you want to make it real, it is not impossible, but you need to pay a lot of price.

Sufficient money is only one aspect, there are also connections in the Rong Mansion and a certain amount of information in the Mansion.

In comparison, the treatment of Jia Rong, the heir to the Ning Mansion, was far behind.

At this time, he is just a supervisor of the Imperial College. The fifth-grade dragon guard's empty duty will have to wait until Qin Keqing dies, which is simply outrageous.

"You kid, try to take advantage of me!"

Jia Lian rolled his eyes angrily, lowered his voice and said, "Don't say sarcastic words, be honest!"

With a gentle smile, Jia Huan stopped teasing this person.

At the end of the year, Laiji finally knew the fact that he had been kicked out of Sihai Gambling House, and naturally he faced off with Jia Lian who replaced him.

Jia Huan has been hiding outside and is not very clear about what is going on inside.

Just when I went home to eat and rest, I heard a few words from Aunt Zhao. I heard that Jia Lian had been frequently unlucky recently, and was called out and scolded several times by Jia's mother, which made her look very disgraced.

As for the more specific details, it's not very clear. Anyway, there are all kinds of rumors and rumors flying around inside the Rong Mansion, so how can one word be messed up.

But I heard Ni Er said that when Lai Er was eating wine outside, he used the strength of his drink to scold Jia Lian, and by the way brought Jia Huan along with him as the instigator.

Really, I don’t know what is good or bad!

If this guy hadn't been staying in Ning Mansion recently and not wandering around outside, Jia Huan would have thought of putting a sack on him and beating him with sap.

I heard Jia Qiang say privately that Lai Er went to ask Jia Zhen for help.

Jia Zhen did not agree. After all, strictly speaking, it was him, the patriarch of the clan, who was taken advantage of by the servants below, which was very embarrassing.

However, he did not punish Laiji, and even gave a clear hint that he would not mind if Laiji could get the situation back.

I can only say that Jia Zhen is not a son of a human being. How can you say this?

If there was no chance, Jia Huan would really like to give this guy a gift package of hidden weapons, so that he can enjoy the wonderful feeling of losing his health and authority in the house.

He could see very clearly that when Jia Qiang was talking about this, his face was full of indignation, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with what Jia Zhen had done.

It can only be said that Jia Zhen, the clan leader, is very unqualified, and she really regards Lai Er as one of her own.
