Mother Jia had never felt that her second daughter-in-law was stupid like now. Wang Xifeng was also stupid.
Yu 'er was not married yet. As an aunt, you asked people to send concubines to your niece's fiancé. Weren't you in a hurry to sever ties with him?!
Madam Wang covered her face and returned to her room. She couldn't help but smash everything in the room.
When Zhou Rui's wife entered, she only saw broken pieces of porcelain all over the floor.
She had been following Madam Wang and knew her methods very well. Now that she saw Madam Wang's gloomy face, she was a little afraid that Madam Wang would vent her anger on her.
Madam Wang glanced at the cowering Zhou Rui's wife and waved her hand, asking her to call someone in to clean up the things on the floor.
Madam Wang covered her face and glared fiercely in the direction of Mother Jia's courtyard.
She had asked Wang Xifeng to mention the girl from the Jia Family to Jia Min, not her Wang Family.
She wouldn't let go of that damned old woman and her "precious daughter". If they wanted to have a "mother-daughter relationship", they had to see if she agreed or not.
The day of Daiyu's sunbathing was very lively. Daiyu's dowry had been prepared since she was born. Lin Ruhai and Jia Min both doted on her. As long as they saw something good and thought it was suitable, they would stuff it into Daiyu's dowry. In the past ten years, they had accumulated a lot of good things. Every box was stuffed full by Jia Min, almost blinding people.
Madam Wang, in particular, was very jealous when she saw Daiyu's dowry. She couldn't wait to take all those things back to her home.
Didn't she choose Xue Baochai because the Xue Family was rich? But she also knew that the Xue Family had Xue Pan. Xue Family's property couldn't be used as Xue Baochai's dowry. Now that she saw Lin Daiyu's dowry, she regretted that she didn't let that damned old woman make the decision to let Lin Daiyu marry Baoyu.
Even if this little vixen really married Baoyu, so what? Once she was in the Jia Family, she would still be at his mercy. When this little vixen died, her dowry would still belong to Baoyu.
However, it was useless to think about this now. Lin Ruhai and Jia Min were really putting on a false front. Even the dowry of this money-losing girl had probably emptied the entire Lin family's storehouse!
Regardless of what Madam Wang and others thought, Daiyu and Situ Lang's wedding went very smoothly.
Because Dai Yu was already engaged, and because she didn't like to go out and deal with people she didn't know, she didn't go out much.
Over time, there was a rumor that Situ's fiancée, the young lady of the Lin Family, was extremely beautiful.
Only after seeing Dai Yu's true appearance did he realize how ridiculous those rumors were.
In the Red House, Lin Daiyu's appearance was already top-notch. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was devastatingly beautiful. Now, with the addition of the nine-tailed fox's soul, there was an additional trace of delicate charm in her beauty, making her even more charming.
This time, the people of the Jia Family were restrained by Mother Jia, so they were very obedient. Even Baoyu was watched by Jin 'en and Jin' xuan, so he didn't cause any trouble.
Madam Wang had always looked down on the Lin family because of their relationship with Jia Min. Especially now that her daughter was a noble in the palace, she became even more arrogant. Even though Mother Jia had reprimanded her before, her status in the Jia family was not affected at all.
However, this time in the Lin Family, Mother Jia kept staring at Madam Wang, so Madam Wang couldn't even say anything sarcastic. She could only sit at the side and pretend to be a "wooden person".
However, Mother Jia's behavior made Madam Wang despise her from the bottom of her heart.
In Madam Wang's opinion, now that her Sister Yuan was in the palace and was the Emperor's concubine, their family was now the Emperor's relative. Facing the Lin Family that didn't have a noble title, there was no need to be so careful.
Moreover, that old witch was a mother. She couldn't even control her own daughter. Hmph — as expected, old people were useless.
Daiyu and Situ Lang left for Jiangnan a few days after Lin Daiyu returned home on the third day.
Daiyu and Situ Lang's departure didn't have any impact on the capital other than the Lin Family's reluctance.
After his father and brother-in-law, Lin Jin 'en also entered the examination venue.
Lin Ruhai also used the excuse of avoiding suspicion to slack off this time.
Lin Jin 'en did not disappoint and became the next person to come in third after his father and brother-in-law.
"Father, brother-in-law, and brother all came in third. I suddenly feel so much pressure!"
Jin Xuan sighed and stuffed another piece of dessert into his mouth.
Jia Min looked at her youngest son's purposely stern little face and pretended to be deep in thought. She laughed and nodded his head.
"Who asked you to always have so many ideas? You just can't calm down and study. Your sister said that if you can calm down and study, your future achievements will definitely be above your brother-in-law and brother. In the future, not to mention Tanhua, even the top scorer will be able to pass the exam. "
Because Jin Xuan was congenitally deficient, Daiyu used to secretly give him many good things to eat in private.
With so many treasures as a foundation, Jin Xuan's talent could be said to be much better than Situ Lang and Jin 'en.
However, because Jin Xuan was born in poor health, the family inevitably doted on him. As a result, Jin Xuan was not as steady as Jin 'en. Moreover, boys were inevitably more mischievous. Although he wasn't as hardworking as Situ Lang in his studies and couldn't let Jin' en calm down, there wasn't much difference.
"What top scholar? I don't want to be in this generation. I was born with the face of a top scholar. The top scholar doesn't just have to be a scholar. There are also high requirements for one's appearance. Just based on this prince's face, who in the world could be more handsome than this prince? So, sigh — I'm destined not to be the top scholar in this life. I didn't think that sometimes being too handsome is also a mistake. "
Although Jin Xuan was small, he tried his best to pretend to be helpless. However, the pride in his eyes couldn't be hidden. It made Jia Min laugh until tears almost came out.
However, after laughing, Jia Min carefully looked at her youngest son's appearance and nodded in her heart.
Although their family was very good-looking, to be honest, Yu 'er and Jin Xuan were the most good-looking.
Jin Xuan really picked on himself and Master. He was a little more good-looking, with red lips and white teeth. When he was young, she only thought that he was cute. Now that he was slowly growing up, Jin Xuan's facial features were becoming more and more exquisite. Although he hadn't fully developed, she could see that he would be a handsome man in the future.
But speaking of which, Master had also said that Lang 'er and Jin' en's talents were not any worse than that of the top scorer and second ranker. But the two of them were both tanhua. It seemed that it was because the two of them were much more outstanding than that top scorer and second ranker!
Thinking about this, Jia Min didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
When did his good looks become a burden?
In the end, Jin 'en was assigned to the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel was in charge of the appointment, dismissal, and examination of civil officials. It was equivalent to the current Organization Department and the Ministry of Human Resources. It was a very good place to go.
After the Emperor was done with the imperial examinations, he wanted to take advantage of this time to deal with those ignorant people in the previous dynasty.
Although the Retired Emperor was not very well now, he could use all kinds of good medicine to keep his life. It could also drag on for a while.
One must know that if the Retired Emperor passed away, even if he was the Emperor, he still had to observe filial piety. At that time, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to deal with those dogs of slaves who didn't know who the real master was.
After all, at that time, the Retired Emperor had just passed away. If he took those slaves of his, it would inevitably make people bitterly disappointed. At the same time, it would also give Old Seven and the others something to use against him.
Not long after, the Emperor found an excuse to seal the six palaces.
Jia Yuanchun was promoted two ranks in a row. Without any children, she became "Consort Xian De". In an instant, the Jia family became arrogant again. Even Madam Wang, who was originally suppressed by Mother Jia, quickly "recovered". In an instant, she was in the limelight in the Jia family. Even Mother Jia, who was suppressed by filial piety, didn't dare to casually give Madam Wang attitude like before.
And the Jia family, who felt that their family had become a true relative of the Emperor and felt that Jia Yuanchun was favored, also gave up on the idea of "reconciling" with the Lin family.
However, regarding this, the Lin family didn't have any "regret". They only felt relaxed.
Jiangnan.
After eating, Situ Lang accompanied Dai Yu for a walk in the garden. Usually, no matter how busy his work was, Situ Lang would always find time to accompany Dai Yu.
Dai Yu was intelligent and sensitive to political matters. In addition to his previous habits, Situ Lang would often discuss some things with Dai Yu.
"You said that the Emperor promoted Jia Yuanchun's position? Who else was promoted at the same time? "
"I heard that there was also Imperial Consort Zhou, Imperial Consort Li, and Imperial Consort Wu!"
"They are all old aristocratic families. The Emperor is going to make a move on the Retired Emperor's people!"
Situ Lang looked at Dai Yu, who reacted after thinking for a while, and felt very proud.
His Yu 'er was indeed intelligent. If it was a man, he probably couldn't compare to her.
