The proportion was not enough to see the anti-theft badge,

It would return to normal after 24 hours,

It could be seen ~

And this child didn't seem to have no feelings for Jia Zhi.

Jia Su sighed in her heart and looked at Jia Gu. She found that her attitude towards the three children was much simpler. Disgust.

Yes,

Jia Gu looked at the three children's eyes,

There was only pure disgust.

Among them, the youngest girl received the most emotions from Jia Gu.

Jia Zhi noticed the look in her eyes and said faintly, "He asked for it.

Third sister, don't worry about it. "

As soon as she said this, a trace of hurt flashed in the boy's eyes,

His two meaty claws twisted together,

His little expression was extremely aggrieved. "Mother,

My face hurts ~ "

But Jia Zhi didn't care at all.

Seeing that Jia Zhi ignored him, the child curled his lips,

He lowered his head in frustration.

The other three children were full of pride when they saw this. The girl even said to Jia Gu proudly, "di mother,

This kid pushed me down,

You must avenge me,

Otherwise, I'll go back and tell father not to enter your room for a month! "

Not to mention Jia Su,

Even Chi Xia, who was used to taking in concubines, Cui Yan,

Couldn't help but widen her eyes at this moment,

She looked at this little girl in disbelief.

Was this really what a five- or six-year-old girl said?

She instigated her father to suppress her di mother?

But at the beginning, Jia Su was full of concern for Jia Su's encounter. In order to "save Jia Su", she didn't hesitate to offend her di mother. At this moment, her face was full of embarrassment. She didn't have the slightest bit of dignity as an official wife and mother.

She just asked the servant maids to pull the three children aside. She didn't even scold them.

In the end, it was Jia Zhi's cold face that made them shut up.

Jia Su had only seen the tip of the iceberg regarding Jia Gu's life in Xiuguogongfu.

She suddenly thought of Lin Ruhai, who was still a teenager. Although she knew that he and Jia Gu's and Jia Zhi's husbands were not the same kind of people, she was once again determined that she would never give her lower body to a man.

Men are all pigs!

Men in ancient times were f * cking upgraded versions of pig trotters!

Meeting Jia Su's gaze, Jia Gu turned his head away awkwardly.

Jia Zhi laughed for the first time. His eyes fell on the little girl who had already shown a mean temperament at such a young age. "I told you that your husband is a bastard who spoils his concubine and neglects his wife. You can't let him control you.

You didn't take my words to heart, and now you've tasted the bitterness?

Ha! "

Jia Gu turned back and smiled reluctantly. "He's my husband and my god. What can I do?"

Jia Zhi stared at Jia Gu with disappointment. "You're really …"

"My two sisters …"

Jia Zhi turned his head and looked over. He sighed. "It's nothing. It's just a small matter not worth mentioning."

Jia Gu nodded in agreement.

The two obviously didn't want to talk about their life after marriage. Jia Su had no choice but to change the topic. However, the scene was really awkward.

It wasn't until Jia Gu sent someone to invite Jia Gu and Jia Su that the atmosphere in the room eased.

Jia Zhi stood up and glanced at Jia Su. "Those gossipy women are all in Fourth Sister's boudoir. If you don't appear, who knows what rumors will spread about you."

Jia Gu followed and advised, "Third Sister's reputation in the capital is already not good. It's not good for you if you add more topics for them to talk about."

Thinking that she was the only one out of the four sisters who didn't appear, it was easy for people to make wild guesses. Jia Su followed along.

-

Time passed quickly. It had been more than a month since Jia Min's wedding day.

Because of the hostility between them, Jia Zhi didn't let Jia Min meet her on the day of her return home.

However, just a few days ago, she heard that Jia Daishan had found a job for Zhou Yu's family in the Imperial Guard Long. He directly cut off the end of Jia Min following him back to the southwest.

Now, the method of fighting in the house that Jia Min had asked her about was temporarily useless.

Cui Yan was indignant when she heard the news. "If Miss marries over, Master won't care whether Miss marries far away or not. It's impossible for him to arrange a job for Miss's husband."

Chi Xia glared at her. "Cui Yan, be careful with your words!"

Jia Su waved her hand and didn't care. "Has Eldest Sister sent anyone to send news?"

Jia Zhi acted decisively. Not long after he returned, he used the dowry to buy the few that Jia Su had taken a fancy to. After that, he often sent people to communicate with her.

However, Jia Gu seemed to have disappeared. She hadn't come up with an answer even after such a long time of consideration.

Chi Xia still shook her head. "This servant has asked the gatekeeper. Xiuguogongfu's servants haven't come over during this time."

Jia Su wanted to ask more, but the servant girl who passed the message ran in. "Miss, the young mistress is here."

Jia Su facepalmed. She could only put Jia Gu's matter aside for the time being. "Let her come in."

This Jia Daishan really didn't give up. Ever since he found out that Concubine Hu was stubborn and couldn't be used as a way to ease their relationship, he had the Chang Clan and Wang Clan come every day to communicate with her, regardless of whether she was willing or not.

She couldn't fall out with him, so she could only deal with him carefully.

The Chang Clan had been married for three years, but because they hadn't been happy yet and hadn't gained a firm foothold in Rongguo Province, they could only obey the Jia Daishan and his wife's orders.

But the matter of communicating feelings with Jia Shu was really beyond the scope of her ability.

Because of the Jia Daishan's attitude towards Jia Su, the Chang Clan treated this concubine-born sister-in-law very carefully. They were afraid that they would offend her if they didn't pay attention. If that happened, they would have to bear the consequences in front of their parents-in-law.

Therefore, at the beginning, the Chang Clan only planned to oppose Jia Su's poetry recital.

This topic was safe and could also pass the time.

However, she didn't expect that Jia Su didn't know anything about poetry. Not to mention writing poems herself, Jia Su often looked confused when she recited a line of ancient poems. She even said that she didn't know.

Jia Zhi sat in the corner by the window. A trace of ridicule flashed through her eyes.

She knew why her elder sister acted like this today, but she couldn't agree with her at all.

Everything changed after they found their third younger sister and confirmed that there were no loopholes in the preparation for opening the shop.

In order to promote the rouge and face powder in the shop, she and Jia Gu personally went into the field. They changed their previous style and attended all kinds of banquets held by the noblewomen every day. They also followed Jia Su's advice. Not only did they let the maids use the rouge and face powder in the shop, but they also changed the rouge and face powder they used to the rouge and face powder that would be sold in their shop.

The effect was very good at the beginning. First, it was novel. Second, the rouge and face powder looked really good after makeup.

Many noblewomen who didn't look very outstanding were even outshone by their maids, which angered some people.

However, later they found out that it was all because of the rouge and face powder. They weren't happy, but they couldn't help but privately visit them, wanting to ask them for some rouge and face powder.

There were only a few famous rouge shops in the capital. Which one of these noblewomen didn't have a close relationship with them?

They didn't need to ask to know that the rouge and face powder used by Jia Zhi and Jia Zhi weren't bought from outside shops. However, they didn't think that Jia Zhi and Jia Zhi wanted to open a shop. They only thought that they had maids who were good at making rouge and face powder or that they got some secret recipe from somewhere.

Because Jia Su didn't tell them how to deal with such a situation, Jia Zhi thought about it and simply gave each of them a box according to their skin color.

Then, at the next banquet, as expected, these madams all seemed to have changed their appearances. Their previous mediocre and inconspicuous appearances were swept away. Among a group of glamorous women, they were able to attract some attention.

These changes naturally caused a stir within a certain range.

Jia Gu saw this and followed suit.

But in the end, the reason why Color Makeup Pavilion was so popular was because of her.

Ever since she started using different methods to use the rouge and face powder from the Color Makeup Pavilion, her husband, the Marquis of Jin Yang, for some reason, gradually began to pay attention to her. There was even a time when she returned home late from a banquet, and he personally rode a carriage to the family holding the banquet to pick her up.

This had never happened before.

Marquis Jinyang had always been famous in the capital for his love for his previous wife. Later, the news about her as his second wife wasn't very good.

Even those who were rumored to be loving and harmonious had never seen the husband put down his status to personally pick her up.

These women were trapped in the backyard every day. As long as the husband was clear-headed and didn't favor the concubine and neglect the wife, they would spend most of their energy fighting for favor in the backyard.

And Jia Su gave them the best example.

At this time, if the news that Color Makeup Pavilion was about to open for business was revealed, how many women would be able to control themselves?

Even Jia Gu, who was initially resistant to the rouge and face powder from Color Makeup Pavilion, had a much more positive attitude after seeing this.

The reason why she was so happy today was because her husband, who had never cared about her, finally noticed her when they met this morning. Not only did he praise her beauty, but he also seemed to remember that she had a miscarriage a month ago. He said a few words of concern to her and promised to rest at her place for the next few days.

Jia Gu's thoughts were similar to those of the other noblewomen, so after her husband gave her the signal to "reconcile," she naturally felt happy.

She even trusted Jia Zhi and Jia Su more and more.

However, Jia Zhi only felt that it was ridiculous. The recent events were just men's lustful nature.

After a period of time, when those concubines who were good at using their looks to please others also began to use the rouge from Color Makeup Pavilion, those men would still revert to their old ways.

Of course, this was good for Color Makeup Pavilion's business, but it was hard for her to be happy when she saw her elder sister indulging in such an illusion.

Unfortunately, Jia Gu was now in high spirits, so these words were in vain.

The carriages moved forward one by one. After about an hour, Jia Su and Mother Lin's carriage finally arrived in front of Color Makeup Pavilion's door.

Jia Zhi looked out of the window and happened to see Jia Su's carriage.

She had been out several times before she got married, so she naturally recognized that this carriage came from Rongguo Province.

Nowadays, Jia Su was the only person who would ride a carriage of this standard.

Jia Zhi said goodbye to Jia Gu and said no to the other guests, then quickly went downstairs to pick up Jia Su.

But when she went downstairs, her gaze was immediately attracted by the Old Madame beside Jia Su, who had an extraordinary temperament at first glance.

She walked forward and looked at Jia Su in confusion, "Third Younger Sister, this Madame is?"

Jia Su hurriedly introduced her, "This is the Marchioness of Wen 'an."

Jia Zhi immediately realized Mother Lin's identity and became much more respectful. She quickly led her to the VIP room on the second floor.

-

After a period of time, Color Makeup Pavilion's business was on the right track. Although it wasn't as popular as it was at the beginning, the daily flow of customers was still very impressive.

It wasn't that no one had any ideas about Color Makeup Pavilion, but when they discovered that behind this small rouge shop stood the four influential families of Rongguo Province, the Xiu Family, the Marquis' Household, and the Count of Wen 'an's Household, they all gave up on this idea.

Because of this, Jia Su's entire being was idle. She only waited to lie in her room and collect small amounts of money every day.

But today was a little different.

Not long after breakfast, Cui Yan pattered into the room from outside the courtyard. His bangs were wet with sweat, and he didn't have the slightest bit of an image.

Chi Xia hurriedly stopped him, "Cui Yan, stop!

Being so impudent in front of Miss, are you itching for a beating? "

Cui Yan hurriedly stopped and stood by the door, but her eyes were still astonishingly bright, "Miss, someone from the Lin family has come!"

Jia Su didn't react for a moment, "Why did someone from the Lin family come?"

Cui Yan cried out in alarm, "Miss, it's the six rites of engagement!"

Although the Jia family and the Lin family already had a verbal agreement, the engagement could be overturned at any time without the three letters and six rites, even if everyone knew about it.

Previously, Cui Yan had always felt that it was unreal when the Lin family's heavenly joyous event fell on Jia Su's head. Several months had passed, and the six rites still hadn't been carried out, so she felt that the engagement might be ruined.

But her Miss's flowering period had already been delayed. How would she get married in the future?

Moreover, she didn't want her Miss to lose Tanhua Lin's engagement.

But she only dared to ponder these little thoughts in her heart and didn't dare to let anyone else know.

Now, the two families had finally started the formal engagement process. How could she not be happy?

Not to mention Cui Yan, even Chi Xia, who had always been calm and composed, had a bit of a blush on her face.

It was obvious that this news made more than one person happy.

Jia Su was still a bit confused, "Didn't they already have an engagement?"

It just so happened that Jia Daishan, Duke Rongguo, also wanted to see him.

During the morning assembly today, because of His Holiness, he suddenly remembered his daughter's wedding and unsurprisingly asked who his daughter's husband was.

Considering that he had previously promised Lin Ruhai's request, Jia Daishan naturally thought of a way to attract His Holiness's attention to Lin Ruhai.

His Holiness was curious, so he casually found an excuse to see Lin Ruhai.

In the end?

Lin Ruhai didn't come at all. Instead, his superior came and even claimed credit for himself in front of His Holiness, saying that he empathized with his subordinates and let Lin Ruhai go home in advance when he saw that he was sick.

Even if His Holiness wanted to ask the Chancellor Lord Hu, Jia Daishan, who knew His Holiness very well, could see that he was angry.

"Tell me, why didn't you seize such a good opportunity today?" Jia Daishan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

As a military general, he wanted to recommend a civil official to the Emperor. Did he know how difficult it was?

Unfortunately, his future son-in-law, whom he had high hopes for, didn't seize this rare opportunity!

Lin Ruhai thought of an excuse and hurriedly told Jia Daishan the facts and speculations he knew without reservation.

Jia Daishan immediately frowned, "You're saying that old man Hu Yao schemed against you?"

Lin Ruhai nodded, "Yes!"

If he hadn't schemed against him, the Chancellor wouldn't have called him back to the Hanlin Academy when he had already returned home.

Not only was it a thankless task, but it also increased the risk of being discovered.

Stealing a subordinate's opportunity or taking the credit of a subordinate was actually quite common in the officialdom.

After Lin Ruhai passed the provincial level examination, the tutor that Mother Lin hired had taught him the ways of being an official. Naturally, he had also mentioned the various unspoken rules of the officialdom. Lin Ruhai was well aware of this.

However, the Chancellor's actions were obviously not for the sake of the officialdom.

Jia Daishan carefully recalled all the interactions he had with Hu Yao in the past. Gradually, he realized something. "You've been implicated."

Lin Ruhai was at a loss, "Implicated?"

He paused for a moment and quickly realized that he was a fallen noble who had just risen. He had no power or influence, so who could implicate him?

"Lord Hu has enmity with the Duke?" Lin Ruhai's mind worked quickly, "Why haven't I heard of this before?"

If two families wanted to form a marriage alliance, they naturally had to find out who the other party was on good terms with and who they had enmity with. They also had to consider whether the benefits of a marriage alliance would outweigh the disadvantages.

However, Mother Lin had never heard of Rongguo Province having enmity with the Chancellor.

Jia Daishan's face was filled with exhaustion, "This Hu Yao might have already secretly pledged allegiance to one of the princes."

His Holiness was healthy and healthy. At a glance, one could tell that he could still live for a few more decades.

However, the Crown Prince that His Holiness had appointed was already over thirty years old and was at his most high-spirited and vigorous age.

Before Min 'er's accident, His Holiness was immersed in the great relationship between His Holiness and the Crown Prince, so he didn't notice that anything was wrong. He even wholeheartedly believed that in the future, His Holiness would ascend to nirvana and that the successor would definitely be the Crown Prince, no one else.

However, Min 'er's words fiercely woke him up from his daydream: Although His Holiness and the Crown Prince were still a loving father and filial son, at the same time, they also had the greatest hidden danger between the successor and the successor.

The father was strong and the son was strong.

His Holiness was still in the prime of his life, while the Crown Prince had already grown up. In the future, it would be unavoidable for them to fight.

In Ke Min 'er's memory, the final victor wasn't the Crown Prince.

Because the successor of Rongguo Province, Jia Xie, was the Crown Prince's study companion, the Jia family was naturally tied to the Crown Prince. If something happened to the Crown Prince, even if His Holiness didn't completely kill him out of consideration for their friendship, the Jia family's final outcome definitely wouldn't be good.

The Crown Prince was appointed as the Crown Prince from birth and was different from the other princes from a young age. Now, he was directly on the opposite side of all the other princes.

In order to pull the Crown Prince down from his position, the other princes could be said to have used all kinds of methods. They even put aside their prejudices and secretly cooperated with each other.

However, before the Crown Prince fell from power, they could only walk this path to the end.

However, when the Crown Prince fell from power, it would be the time for the Jia family to be dealt with. The Jia family simply wouldn't have the chance to change sides and switch sides.

Just thinking about it made Jia Daishan's heart tired.

The reason why Lin Ruhai was targeted was most likely because someone saw that he valued Lin Ruhai and wanted to focus on nurturing him.

Now that there was no war, generals weren't popular, and their positions in the court were gradually weakened.

Rongguo Province still had a lot of military power in his hands. It wasn't obvious now, but if he kept the military power, it would attract the Emperor's fear sooner or later. Even if it was for the sake of his descendants, he couldn't keep the military power in his hands.

Fortunately, when Jia Daihua's eldest brother was still alive, he had already set a development plan for the Jia family to abandon Wu Congwen. Jing 'er had even passed the Jinshi exam in her twenties, giving the Jia family a good start.

However, how could it be enough to have only one person in the family?

That was why he targeted Lin Ruhai, who was also of noble birth but had passed the Jinhua exam.

The Jia family had a lot of resources. If he could take the opportunity to promote Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai to high positions, the Jia family wouldn't have to worry about the transformation of the family in the future.

Of course, this was on the premise that Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing were able to succeed.

If he wanted to destroy the Jia family, it would be easiest and most effective to start with Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing, the two future pillars of the Jia family.

However, Jia Jing had already gained a firm foothold in the court, and he himself had also gained a lot of experience in the officialdom. If he wanted to make a move on him, he had to be prepared to lose his life.

Only Lin Ruhai had just entered the court, and he was young, so it was easy for him to fall into the trap set by those old foxes in the officialdom.

For example, today, he was targeted and schemed against by his immediate superior.

If Lin Ruhai hadn't been calm, Hu Yao would have also looked down on him because of Lin Ruhai's age. The result would have been hard to say.
