The social circle of the official wives can not be underestimated at any time, after all, Xue Pan, who was forced to watch many episodes of Korean dramas in later generations, knows very well how powerful the pillow wind of these ladies is, although Izumoko may use this occasion to develop his social circle, but there is no way, this is necessary to accompany these people, so as not to make any jokes about Mrs. Jia's funeral, which can also understand why after Qin Keqing's death, Jia Zhen, the patriarch of Ningguo Mansion, begged Wang Xifeng to preside over internal affairs in the past.

The wife of the governor of Caoyun came to sit down slightly, and did not talk with everyone, and specially looked at Xue Pan's side, Wen Yan said a few words, expressing the gratitude of the governor of Caoyun, and left.

Red and white things are the most cumbersome, so noisy after seven days, Duzhong sent a letter, saying that Jia Lian, the son of Jia Amnesty, the head of Rongguo Mansion, came to mourn filial piety, Jia Yu is Jia Min's eldest brother, Jia Lian is Jia Min's serious nephew, and he is the son of Changfang.

Counting up, Jia Lian and Xue Pan are still a little related, this is not a deadlift relationship with Lin Ruhai, but Jia Lian's future wife, that is, the famous Wang Xifeng, is the daughter of Xue Pan's uncle, and Xue Pan's cousin, this second master Lian is also a powerful master, easy to offend, Xue Pan has learned from Mama Wang, now the customs of the funeral of the Dayue Dynasty, that is, the mother's family is extremely important, if the mother's family thinks that the husband's family has anything to treat their married daughter unfavorably, they don't give face at the funeral, This is a very normal thing, so although it is also a relative, it is not easy to deal with it casually.

Xue Pan asked Steward Lin to prepare a business, waiting to receive the mother's family, two days later, the water transport dock came up to report, Jia Lian and his party had arrived, and the family was ready, and when Jia Lian arrived at the Lin Mansion, Lin Daiyu had already worn filial piety and knelt outside the courtyard to wait, Jia Lian had already changed into plain clothes, howling and crying and crawling and kneeling into Mrs. Jia's main courtyard, and crying and kowtowing in front of the spirit, and the servants who cried the spirit also hurriedly cried, and the mourning hall was very lively for a while. He ordered his grandmother to pull up Lin Daiyu, who returned the gift, and cried: "God is not merciful, my cousin is only a few years old, and my aunt is gone!" ”

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but howl when Jia Lian cried like this, and after a while, Lin Ruhai came out again and persuaded Jia Lian not to be too sad, "Madame is living very peacefully, but my Lin family didn't take good care of Madame, and the old man felt very guilty." ”

Xue Pan invited Jia Lian to Lin Ruhai's study to drink tea, and went out to specifically instruct Mama Wang to take Daiyu down not to cry, and then entered the study again, at this time Jia Lian had already put away his crying, he had a long face, long eyebrows into the sideburns, a smile at the corner of his mouth, a smile at the corner of his eyebrows and eyes, although he was wearing plain clothes, but there was a piece of jade like blue water on his hand, and a small red jade pendant hanging, looking like a rich and noble child, the maid served tea, Lin Ruhai said what happened before and after Mrs. Jia's body, Jia Lian sighed a few times when she listened, "My aunt is not blessed, she has only been in good health for a few years, she has been sick for so many days, and after so many days, the old ancestor was still talking about it, saying that if Jiangnan is not adaptable, she will be recuperated by a good student in Beijing, but I didn't expect my aunt to go so fast!" ”

Lin Ruhai sighed, "Tired mother-in-law is worried, it's really uneasy, but this news is slowly told to the ancestor?" If it disturbs the glory of Lao Taishui, it is really damned! ”

"The ancestor cried a lot, saying that there are a few sisters, but the only one who loves is my aunt, I didn't expect that this one went earlier than myself, it really hurts! Fortunately, there are people in the family to take care of them, the wives are attentive, and there are also Hua'er's sisters who are filial piety in front of the ancestors, and the Baoyu brothers are also relieved, which is a little better, but they just asked their nephew to come over quickly and help their uncle take care of the funeral. ”

"Fortunately, this time there is a brother of the Xue family here," Lin Ruhai said to Jia Lian, "I didn't leave the big folds." ”

Jia Lian hurriedly got up and re-met Xue Pan, he was much older than Xue Pan, he looked like he was already eighteen or nineteen years old, he was born a talent, suave, and it could be seen between his eyebrows that he was a very talkative and sociable character, Jia Lian looked at Xue Pan, and first thanked him: "If it weren't for Brother Xue to eat and help, my aunt's future affairs would not know how to be good, thanks to Brother Xue's good work, the scene is very big, I just saw it at the door just now, there are many salt merchants here to help, let's these people." , to do red and white things, the important thing is to have a face, the scene is big, there is face, this is the best. ”

"What the second brother said is very true," Xue Pan was slightly proud, after all, this was his credit, and he said with all his treasures, "Today is just a group of people, I have already ordered that the two Huai salt merchants, no matter how big or small, will all come to the Lin Mansion to serve, they have taken turns, so what the second brother sees is just some people, and when it comes to the big day of the funeral, they all want to come together." ”

Saying such things, according to the past, Jia Lian must have thought that Xue Pan was so ambitious and very dishonest, what did he say? The two Huai salt merchants were called by you to drink? These are not small businessmen, they are all giant businessmen, and they are all involved in the various forces in the capital, and the background is very deep, and they are by no means ordinary people can call, if Lin Ruhai comes forward, it will be fine, but according to your little brat......

But Jia Lian didn't dare not believe Xue Pan's words, he came all the way to the ground in Jinling Province, and heard countless rumors about this place in Yangzhou on the boat, this rumor spread everywhere, most of the rumors are related to the fat man in front of him who laughs very freely, he has to make a decision after a good life.

Jia Lian remained silent, "That's the best," he turned his head to Lin Ruhai and said, "My uncle's excerpt arrived in the capital, and I heard the people in front of the emperor say that it was all over Luoyang City, saying that it was Long Live Lord Longyan Dayue, and he praised his uncle for being a capable minister, and he helped the court get so much silver at once, and the dilemma on the front line was solved. ”
