Chapter 119 1 Treating people equally can also offend people
"Baoyu! It's not that your aunt doesn't agree with you, it's that Daiyu has been used to sleeping alone since she was a child."
"She is too light a sleeper, and too many people around will disturb her sleep."
"She wouldn't even let Yongan sleep with her."
"You should also ask your uncle about Yongan studying with you."
"They have a teacher. Your uncle said the teaching is OK. Your aunt can't just fire him without a reason."
Jia Min looked very guilty for directly rejecting the child. This Baoyu looked a bit like Nianhulu's dullness.
She is indeed good-looking, and her personality is also very easy to control.
But Jia Min feels a little awkward about becoming a son-in-law in the future.
After getting used to seeing all kinds of mischief in our own children, we look at the exquisite and pampered children in other people's families.
She always feels helpless that she can't be a mother.
When Jia Baoyu heard that both conditions were rejected, he was very puzzled.
"Aunt! Where can a teacher be better than our Jia family's?"
"Besides, what's the point of studying alone or with two people? It's fun only when we are together as classmates."
"Besides, wouldn't it be more lively if all the sisters lived together?"
After all, he is her own nephew, so Jia Min couldn't say anything too much or hit him like she would her own child.
Moreover, Daiyu had told her about this before she entered the Jia Mansion, and she also agreed that the child could live with her alone.
It may be that the child has never lived outside and feels uneasy.
But Baoyu kept worrying about this matter, and no one in the room thought it was wrong.
Instead, they all watched with great interest, as if it were all natural.
It seems that I haven't been home for more than ten years, and it does feel a bit awkward.
"Baoyu, your aunt really has no say in the matter of studying, and they don't study alone, they have classmates."
Jia Min didn't want to say much about the identities of her classmates. They were Yongyi, the Prince of Nan'an, and Daiyu. Explaining more would only cause trouble.
"Let's not talk about this, Baoyu. Auntie has prepared a gift for you. Don't worry about your sister Lin and the others. They are just like mud monkeys."
"I'm not going to be a good person if I stay with you guys."
After saying that, Jia Min took out the gifts she had prepared and distributed them to the children one by one.
Regardless of whether Sanchun was a legitimate or illegitimate child, Jia Min gave her a gold and jade bracelet.
The four treasures of the study that all the brothers prepare.
After sorting out the people at the scene, Jia Min saw that two people were missing, so she said to Jia Mu,
"Mother! I heard that my second brother has two younger brothers?"
"Brother Huan, and Brother Lang?"
"Aren't you here?"
"I have some gifts prepared for them. I'd like to ask someone else to deliver them, or for them to come over."
There's no way around it. This is just an inconvenience for a girl going back to her parents' home.
It's not a good idea to interfere in the dispute between legitimate and illegitimate children in my brother's family, but I can't be too partial to one over the other either.
The last time my second brother went to Yangzhou, he mentioned how many children he had in his family.
Now that the child isn’t showing up, I can’t pretend I don’t know, right?
When she asked this, not only Mrs. Wang, but also Lady Jia's expression changed.
My daughter is still so simple and straightforward.
There must be a reason why the two children didn't come. Someone must not want to see them.
"The two children are still young. They can't stand steadily and can't speak clearly."
“I didn’t let them come.”
"Since you mentioned it, let them come over! Yuanyang will send someone to inform them that their aunt is here. Let Zhu'er's wife and Huan'er come over!"
Grandmother Jia couldn't help but sigh in her heart. With more people in the family, there are more worries.
Since the two children did not come, it was natural for the maids to guess what their masters were thinking.
There was no notification, and it is not even ruled out that someone hinted them not to run around or show up.
The second son's wife looked very nice, but her thoughts were so obvious that even the servants could see it clearly.
How can a couple be of one mind if there is a rift between them?
Mrs. Wang’s own son died, and she was too lazy to even see her daughter-in-law and grandson. Did she treat them as if they were all dead?
Not to mention the child Jia Huan.
Waving in front of me is like poking my wife's lungs.
Which family doesn't have illegitimate children? If you want to have none, you have to resort to some shady means.
When Jia Min mentioned the two children, Grandmother Jia immediately ordered someone to call them.
Mrs. Wang's face was filled with annoyance and she clenched her handkerchief tightly.
She didn't expect that Jia Min would embarrass herself in front of a room full of people on the first day.
Doesn't this hurt my heart?
She, Jia Min, had a son and a daughter by her side. It was said that Lin Ruhai did not even have a concubine now.
My daughter entered the palace and there has been no news since, and my son passed away, leaving only an orphan.
Only my Baoyu fought for his dignity, and now he is being raised by my mother-in-law.
Jia Min, you are already very successful, why do you need to cause trouble for others?
Thinking of this, she suddenly looked at Jia Tanchun with resentment.
Although this child is good, he still needs to be carefully monitored for a few years.
For a girl, all she needs is a dowry, but it’s different for a boy.
Since Jia Tanchun entered the house, she kept her head down and said nothing.
Born as a concubine's daughter, I have to learn to endure since I was old enough to understand.
If you want to get what you want, you have to take a roundabout way.
How can she compare to Lin's cousin? She looks like a pampered girl.
Who says girls don’t want to be willful and capricious? They just don’t have the opportunity!
That is something that many people desire but cannot obtain.
Jia Tanchun secretly made up her mind to get along better with Lin Daiyu in the future.
Not long after, Jia Zhu's deceased wife Li Wan came with her son Jia Lan, while Jia Huan came directly with his wet nurse.
At this time, both of them were probably three or four years old, and were probably not used to such occasions, so they seemed reserved and nervous.
The two children were first guided by their nurse to greet everyone in the room one by one.
After they finished paying their respects, Grandmother Jia said to them, "Give your respects to your aunt."
Lin Daiyu stood beside Jia Min and looked at the two children carefully.
Jia Lan had a dignified mother who taught him personally. His mother, Li Wan, was the daughter of the chief academic officer of the Imperial College. She had always been dignified and polite. She was also a widow, so she naturally kept a close eye on her child.
The child's temperament became more and more reserved, and he refused to go to crowded places.
Not to mention Jia Huan, who followed Jia Zheng's concubine Aunt Zhao every day and couldn't learn any rules.
Mrs. Wang and the mistresses of the other families looked down on him. No one cared about him, and even the children would read his face.
After being treated with cold stares and scolding so many times, he naturally became like a mad rabbit with its fur singed, digging holes everywhere.
His other qualities cannot be seen now, and Jia Huan doesn’t look as ugly as he does in the TV series.
After all, the genes of my parents and sister are there.
Just a hairy kid who hasn't grown up yet.
Lin Daiyu, who also has a child, secretly rejoiced in her heart, thank goodness that the Lin family did not have so many troubles.
Otherwise I would be in real trouble.
If there really was a concubine making trouble and bullying Jia Min.
Can I kill someone?
This matter is still only in the imagination stage.
Everyone saw that Jia Min gave the same gifts to all her brothers and sisters.
It's really a situation of some being happy while others being sad.
……
"Madam! The table is ready outside. The steward is here to ask if we women have finished making out."
"It's time to eat!" Yuanyang came over after hearing the news from outside and broke the silence in the room.
"And the eldest lady from the East Mansion came to ask, saying that she heard that our aunt had returned."
"Let's wait and see when the old lady will show them some favor and let them set up a few tables to show their filial piety. Please invite the old lady, the aunt, and all the ladies and young ladies."
As soon as Yuanyang finished speaking, Jia's mother smiled and said to everyone,
"Listen, we just received someone here, and the East Palace got the news."
"Let them wait!"
