Chapter 2 The History of Jia Huan's Borrowing Principles
"Mom, you have worked hard for a long time, so eat some too. Your health is important. As for those servants, if you have the chance to vent your anger for your mother, keep it and let her get it back!"
It would be fine if Jia Huan didn't say this. As soon as he said this, Aunt Zhao became even more furious and cursed: "Don't you bet, if you have that, would you have to be so humble and make trouble with those little prostitutes and wives?"
Jia Huan stopped talking because he knew that no matter what he said, Aunt Zhao would not believe it. After all, her predecessor really didn't have the ability, and even the maid dared to talk to him in person.
Thinking of this, Jia Huan sighed and said, "Mom, let's say a few words. I just woke up and had a headache. If you make a noise, don't you have to spend money if your condition worsens?"
When she heard the word "金", Aunt Zhao shut up decisively. She usually wanted to take all the money from the Jia family to her room, so she naturally treated the silver as if she was alive. Secondly, she was worried about Jia Huan's health.
"Brother Huan, please have a good rest first, I won't argue with you!"
Although Aunt Zhao is unreliable, she is sincere to her son. She has never studied and doesn't know what the reason is.
The only thing I know is the rules in the Jia family circle.
After Aunt Zhao left, she ordered her maid Xiao Jixianger to watch her at any time, and if Jia Huan had any needs in the room, she would tell her.
"San Master, are you getting better?"
Xiao Jixiang is thin and weak, looking like he is malnourished, with a little bit of grief, and a little joy.
Jia Huan sat up slowly, looked at Xiao Jixiang up and down, and smiled and said, "It's much better. Just play in the yard by yourself. I'll call you if you have something to do!"
Jia Huan is actually pretty and handsome, all of whom are a standard handsome guy. He doesn't like it because he often looks at people with a squinted look and looks terrible.
Now Jia Huan naturally can't do the style of his predecessor. Naturally, Xiao Zhengtai, who made Xiao Jixiang's glasses wide open. He was very curious and thought to himself: "The Third Master seems a little different!"
The girls of seven or eight years old love to play. After receiving Jia Huan's instructions, Xiao Jixiang smiled happily and ran out quickly.
In the room, Jia Huan was the only one. Now he needs to think about what kind of dynasty this is. In the Dream of Red Mansions world, it is said to have nothing to do with history, but there are many history before the Ming Dynasty.
It can be said that it is related, but even the dynasty cannot judge it. It can only guess based on Cao Gong's identity.
The beginning of the article introduces the origin of the work in the form of a myth, saying that Nuwa refining 36,501 stones to repair the sky, only 36,500 pieces were used, and the remaining one was not used, and it was abandoned under Qinggeng Peak.
The remaining stone was left to complain and feel sorry for oneself, and the sadness day and night. When a monk and the Tao saw that it was cute, they engraved numbers on it and carried it down to earth.
I don’t know how many lifetimes and disasters passed by, Taoist Kong Kong passed by and saw a story carved on the stone. He was entrusted by the stone and copied it down and passed it on to Cao Gong. After ten years of review, he added and deleted it five times, he wrote it into a book.
In short, there are many doubts, or because Cao Gong was in a different era, this is why these narratives are not clearly described.
However, with the mentality of coming from this, Jia Huan did not blame others or complain about himself. He was thinking about how to live in the future.
The song "Birds Flying to the Forest" tells almost everything.
An official, his family business has withered;
The rich, the gold and silver are gone;
Those who are kind, escape from death;
Ruthless, clear retribution.
If you owe your life, your life has been repaid;
I have no tears, and the tears have been gone.
Revenge is not a slightest,
Separation and polymerization are all determined before.
If you want to know that your life is short, ask about your previous life,
It’s really a lucky person to be rich in old age.
Those who see through will escape into the monk;
Obsessed with life wasted.
It’s like birds rushing into the forest after eating, and the white earth is so clean!
Thinking of the lyrics of this song, Jia Huan felt a little touched. Now that he is 8 years old, the Jia family was searched after he became an adult.
The 87th version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is very classic, but it has always misled many people.
Among them, each of them was particularly vague, as if they were very big from the beginning, thinking that the characters were around seventeen or eighteen or twenty years old.
Actually, it is wrong.
Lin Daiyu first entered Rongguo Mansion, and the book explained it very clearly that she was only six or seven years old. After the eightyth chapter, even the Jia family was searching the house, and she was only about twenty years old!
In the original work, Jia Yucun was her teacher when Lin Daiyu was five years old. After teaching for a year, Lin Daiyu's mother Jia Min died of illness.
Then Lin Ruhai planned to go to Beijing for a long time, so Lin Daiyu should be about eight years old when she entered the Jia Mansion.
When Leng Zixing was gossiping the Jia family, he clearly stated that Jia Baoyu was eight years old.
Later, Lin Daiyu entered the Jia Mansion, and Mrs. Wang said that she had a son of the Demon King of the World, and was named Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu's psychological description is that she knows that this cousin was born with jade, one year older than herself.
So I made do with it. Lin Daiyu entered Rongguo Mansion at the age of eight, and Jia Baoyu was less than nine years old.
In fact, until Jia Yuanchun visited her relatives, Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu were at most twelve or twelve years old. Xue Baochai was waiting to be selected when she went to Beijing, but she was only twelve or twelve years old.
Each of the three of them is one year older. Xue Baochai is older than Jia Baoyu, Jia Baoyu is older than Lin Daiyu, and Cao Gong is very flexible in jumping time and space.
According to the context of spring, summer, autumn and winter, it is difficult for people to discover it.
However, it can be roughly estimated that the Jia family was confiscated and exiled for about 11 or 12 years.
Because Jia Baoyu is about two years older than Jia Huan, I inferred that his predecessor is now 7-8 years old, which means that Jia Baoyu is now 9-10 years old.
Thinking of this, Jia Huan shouted to Xiao Jixiang outside: "Xiao Jixiang, Miss Lin has a lot of books. Go and ask if there are any historical books. If so, please lend me a copy."
"Hey, Master Third, I'll go now!"
Xiao Jixiang's answer confirmed Jia Huan's guess. At this time, Lin Daiyu had been in the Jia Mansion for two or three years.
Xue Baochai should be coming soon, so he didn't dare to ask Xiao Jixiang directly, so he could only wait until he got better before he could understand the situation.
About half an hour, Xiao Jixiang brought back the history books with difficulty, and Lin Daiyu's maid Xueyan was accompanied by Lin Daiyu.
As soon as he came in, Xueyan asked, "Is the Third Master better?"
"Thank you Sister Xueyan for your concern, you can sit down first." Jia Huan smiled and asked Xueyan to sit down, and then ordered Xiao Jixiang to pour tea.
But Xueyan refused to say that Lin Daiyu couldn't live without people, so she left in a hurry.
But before leaving, I looked at Jia Huan intentionally or unintentionally, probably the same as Xiao Jixiang's previous thoughts.
After receiving the history books, Jia Huan asked Xiao Jixiang to play with him and read it carefully. From Xia, Shang and Zhou to Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, there were all dynasties, but this dynasty was not the Qing Dynasty, but the Chu Dynasty.
Jia Huan skipped the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties and carefully looked at the history of this dynasty. In the late Ming Dynasty, the founding emperor of this dynasty led the four kings, eight dukes and thirty-two marquis to start fighting on the battlefield, defeated Li Zicheng, and drove away the Qing Tartars.
This was the founding of the Great Chu Dynasty. The royal family had surnamed Tu, the Beijing King: surnamed Shui, the Dong'an Prince: surnamed Mu, Nan'an Prince, and the Xining Prince did not have names in the book.
However, it is recorded in this book that the prince of Nan'an County was surnamed Huo and the prince of Xining County was surnamed Jin.
It is very consistent with the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, which correspond to the eastern wood, western gold, southern fire, northern water, and central earth respectively.
As for the Bagong's records, there are detailed records in the 14th chapter of the original "Dream of Red Mansions", "Lin Ruhai donated the house to Yangzhou City, and Jia Baoyu visited King Beijing on the way".
"At that time, the grandson of the King of the Zhenguo, the grandson of the King of the State, appeared to be the first-class Boniu Jizong, and the grandson of the Duke of Liguo, Liu Biao, appeared to be the first-class son Liu Fang.
The grandson of Duke Chen Yi of Qi, hereditary General Chen Ruiwen of the third-rank Weizhen, and the grandson of Duke Ma Kui of the country, hereditary General Ma Shang of the third-rank Weiyuan.
The grandson of Duke Xiuguo Hou Xiaoming, the first-class son Hou Xiaokang, was inherited from the imperial edict of Duke Xiuguo, and his grandson Shi Guangzhu never came to mourn.
These six families and the two families of Ning Rong were called "Eight Dukes" on that day."
However, there is no record of the Qing Dynasty.
Although this historical book is mostly recorded in traditional Chinese characters, it is not difficult for Jia Huan, who graduated from undergraduates. Even if he does not recognize some of the characters, it will not affect his reading at all when he recalls them.
"call."
After reading it, it was more than two hours later, and Jia Huan's understanding of this world has also deepened a lot.
He found Xiao Jixiang, handed her a tael of silver hidden in his predecessor, and ordered: "Take this tael of silver to the kitchen and hand it over to the mothers in charge of the kitchen, and ask them to help make three boxes of pastries.
After I took it back, I asked Sister Xiaoque to send this book to Miss Lin with you, and said thank you for her history books.
Another box was sent to my third sister, so she didn't have to worry about my health, just take good care of myself.
As for the other box, I will give it to you and Sister Xiaoque to eat.
Remember to let the moms in the kitchen make it more refined, do you know?”
After Xiao Jixiang took the silver, he was very suspicious that the third master was sick again. He used to wish he could dig a mountain of gold and silver from outside, but now he was willing to use it with a tael of silver.
Looking at Xiao Jixiang's suspicious eyes, Jia Huan felt amused and crying. It seemed that the impression left by this predecessor was difficult to wash away.
"Go quickly. The third master is very sober now. If my aunt asks you, you will say you will go to other yards to play. Don't say it's leaking, otherwise your aunt will make trouble, it will not be fun!"
After hearing this, Xiao Jixiang finally believed that the third master was not sick, so he happily took the silver and ran towards the big kitchen.
Chapter completed!
