Tomorrow is a new week, but seeing that today is about to be surpassed again, alas! I'm faltering, while other new books are gaining traction, but I'm like a snail crawling. I think I might as well call myself Snail White instead of pear blossom white. But no matter what, please vote for me, click on the recommendation ticket and leave a message to collect the PK ticket... Next week I will hit the new book list on the homepage, 555555. I was confident before, but now I suddenly feel that the road ahead is difficult... ORZ

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt his head tilt under his body. When he looked carefully, he saw that Jiang Wanying had actually fallen asleep. She hurriedly massaged him a few more times, then quietly stepped away. She picked up a thin blanket and covered him with it. Then she walked to the door and stood quietly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. This day happened to be April 18th, two days after Jin Fengju's birthday. Early in the morning, Jiang Wanying took a few maids with her to Mrs. Jiang's room and said a few words. After saying that, they went to Mrs. Jin together.
Old Mrs. Jin lived in "Kangshouyuan", not far from Mrs. Jiang's main house. When the two arrived, the old Mrs. Jin had already gotten up. There were several people around her talking and laughing, including the second master's wife Fang and Her daughter-in-law He, aunt Hai and others as well as several children.
Although Mrs. Jin's husband died young, she is in very good health. He is now sixty-five years old. Although his hair is as silver as silk, his face does not look old. There are only a few wrinkles on his face, but his complexion is quite good.
Mrs. Jin has two sons: the eldest son is Jin Fengju’s father. Jin Yu, who has inherited the title of Marquis, is currently working as a governor in other places. Out of filial piety, he left his wife and children in Beijing under the lap of Mrs. Chenghuan. Then he only took his two aunts with him to take up the post. Now that his term is over, he will be transferred back to Beijing.
Jin Yu has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son is called Jin Pengzhan, but he is not in the mansion at the moment. Instead, he has gone to work as a fifth-grade prefect in another place. His first wife, Mrs. Liu, was the granddaughter of Feng Guogong. At this time, she and several of her aunts and concubines were not in the house, so they followed him in office. The second son is Jin Fengju. There is also a daughter, Jin Yanqiu, who is Prince Rong's house-filler. Last year, Prince Rong personally requested the decree and made him a princess. This Jin Yanqiu is Jin Pengzhan's sister, but she is two years older than Jin Fengju. She has been treating this younger brother since she was a child. She likes her very much, and Jin Fengju has learned a lot from her. Although she has a transcendent status now, she still has some respect for this sister in her heart.
The second son of the old lady is Jin Shi, the second master, who is now serving as a member of the Ministry of Industry in Beijing. His wife, Fang, is the sister of the Minister of Rites. The old man is slightly inferior to his elder brother. He has only one son and one daughter. The eldest son Jin Luanfeng does not like studying but is very good at business. Therefore, he only has a sinecure in the court and manages the properties of the Hou Mansion in various places all the year round. The Jinxianghou Mansion is as wealthy as it is today, and its wealth is certainly due to its honorable title; however, most of this wealth can be attributed to Jinluan Peak. Daughter Jin Yanfang is married to the son of the Minister of Industry, and has a son and a daughter. Her position in her husband's family is also very stable.
Although the people in Jin Xianghou's house cannot be said to be indifferent to fame and fortune, they are not very keen on officialdom conflicts. However, because of their relationship with Prince Rong, they have to be involved in this treacherous political struggle. Fortunately, although Houmen is as deep as the sea and the women in the inner house fight endlessly, the men are very united. Perhaps because there are not many brothers and sisters, Jin Pengzhan, Jinfengju, Jinluanfeng and the two married sisters The relationship between them is very good, and it was their concerted efforts that allowed the Jinxianghou Mansion to maintain a high status in the capital during the period when Prince Rong was keeping a low profile, although he was always suppressed by Prince Hong. , but since Jin Fengju was forced to marry Fu Qiuning, his status in the court has skyrocketed. In less than two years, he became the envied long-term imperial censor. Therefore, even Prince Hong does not dare to He easily put pressure on the Jin Xianghou Mansion, so when Jin Fengju thought of Fu Qiuning a few days ago, he had the idea of divorcing his wife.
Without further ado, Jiang Wanying and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Jiang, came to the old lady's room early in the morning. As soon as they said a few words, they saw Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Huo and Cui also leading their children. Get lively. The children were chasing and playing in the underground. The old lady looked at this harmonious scene and smiled from ear to ear. She said to Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Fang: "Our Jin family has always been a small number of people. When it comes to you, In my father-in-law's generation, he was the only male. After I married him, we only had two sons and many concubines. However, as fate would have it, nothing happened. When it comes to your generation, it's not like that. To be fair, those aunts and the like didn’t give birth to children, but you two main wives do have a few sons and daughters, but for our family, they are still not many. Who would have thought that these branches and leaves would suddenly become lush, especially Fengju , I’m only in my early twenties this year, right? I’m the father of six children. Isn’t this a great blessing? From now on, I don’t know how many great-grandchildren I will have. Oh, when I think of this , I wish I could live to be a hundred years old and be surrounded by these grandchildren every day, that would be the true happiness of a family."
Jiang Wanying smiled and said: "It's because our ancestors have taken advantage of all three things, that the Hou Mansion can be prosperous now. Ancestor, please live a good life and live to be a thousand years old. By then, our Hou Mansion will be prosperous." We can continue to prosper from generation to generation, thanks to us and you. We know that our fortune is small, and we dare not ask for more. Living two or three hundred years is enough."
What he said made everyone laugh. Jin Taijun pointed at Jiang Wanying and said with a smile: "If you are eloquent, you will be two, three hundred or a thousand years old. By then, our mansion will not be a prince's mansion, but a goblin nest." ”
Everyone started laughing again, and after they finished laughing, the old lady said to Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Fang: "Okay, you all can go back. I know, now that it's the Dragon Boat Festival, you don't know how busy you will be. If you have time, let's go back." Take a rest yourself, you don’t have to spend time here with me." As he said that, he said to Jiang Wanying: "Help your mother-in-law, she is not in very good health, after all, she is almost fifty."
Before Jiang Wanying could speak, Mrs. Jiang smiled and said: "Why is there any need for ancestors to say it? This child is very attentive. She thinks about things for me that I normally wouldn't think of. Now I am just like a normal person, Zuo Peng My son is not in the house, there is only the second child and his family, so I simply let her take care of it. So if we let her go back, I would rather stay here to accompany my ancestors."
Jin Taijun smiled and said: "Why do you want to accompany me? You want to play cards with me and think about how to make money from me, right?"
Everyone laughed again after saying this, and Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Huo also made some jokes, but because they were aunts, the old lady had a faint expression on her face. She actually liked the children, so everyone left the children behind and followed them. Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Wanying retreated together.
Returning to Mrs. Jiang's room again, Mrs. Xu was quick-tongued and embellished the story about how Jin Feng was taken to Fu Qiuning's place. Mrs. Jiang was very puzzled. She looked at Jiang Wanying and said in confusion: "You and Feng Ju are married." It's been six years, right? I've never heard anyone mention those three ladies before. Why did Feng Juhu La Bazi think of it? Have you ever gone to see it? What's the situation of that family now? Nothing else. He said, that woman is the daughter of the Prince of Zhenjiang, and our family has become like this, she will definitely divorce her in the future, to avoid getting into trouble, why don't you persuade Feng Ju to do something?"
Jiang Wanying sighed and said: "How could I have thought that this would happen? I have always just let my horse eat grass without paying attention to it. Who knows why I suddenly remembered it? Jin Mingcheng is with me all the time. I want to call him Come and ask, I haven’t seen the chance yet.” (To be continued)
