Quick Transmigration: Start killing from The Legend of Zhen Huan!

Chapter 954: Dream of the Red Chamber, Lin Daiyu (117)

"old lady!"

Yuanyang gently comforted her, "Miss Biao is a kind child; she knows that you, Madam, are thinking of her."

She will definitely come back to keep you company.

"I'm afraid that won't work."

Grandmother Jia murmured, "It's almost impossible for a woman who marries into the royal family to even return to her parents' home."

Not to mention they would come to visit this old woman.

Actually, it doesn't matter whether you come or not.

This child's heart, like her father's, is very clear.

She won't easily listen to us or follow our arrangements.

She is a person with her own ideas.

fair enough.

With both ability and clarity of mind, she was able to secure a place for herself in the royal family.

We don't need to worry about her anymore.

"Miss Biao is exceptionally intelligent."

Yuanyang smiled and said, "This servant thinks that our cousin is just like you, the old lady, able to see through everything."

Such a wise and intelligent person can live a good life no matter where they are.

"Please rest assured, Madam."

"Don't worry, of course you can rest assured."

Grandmother Jia smiled and said, "She is not a heartless person. She can see that the eldest son and Lian-ge'er can both be helped up."

We'll still have to rely on them in the future.

"Second brother, this guy..."

At this point, Grandmother Jia revealed a complicated expression, "Just like his daughter-in-law."

They're all clueless fools who can't see themselves clearly.

This child, Baoyu...

I really spoiled them.

It's all because of that idiot mother of hers who leaked the news that he had jade in his mouth.

She didn't even consider that the appearance of such extraordinary people and events in a family like ours is not a blessing but more likely a curse.

For Baoyu's life, and for our family's livelihood.

The only thing we can do is raise him into a spoiled brat who knows nothing about grains, is lazy, and doesn't even recognize livestock.

I just hope he can live a smooth and uneventful life.

The original intention of betrothing Yu'er to Baoyu was that Lin Ruhai would take care of him in the future.

Nowadays!

We can only rely on the eldest son's family.

As long as they are willing to take care of Baoyu a little, they can manage to get by.

"Don't worry, ma'am."

Yuanyang smiled and continued to reassure them, "Our family is doing just fine with you watching over us."

Whether it's the eldest master or the second master, they are all willing to listen to you.

You should just enjoy your life now.

"You're just trying to comfort this old woman."

Grandmother Jia sighed softly, “I know that the eldest son harbors resentment.”

The matter of the eldest son's wife back then...

Mentioning the old story, Grandmother Jia's expression became even more complicated, and she murmured, "It's because the eldest son isn't close to me."

It's not like I raised this child.

From a young age, he entered the palace to become the Crown Prince's study companion.

It's so difficult for my son and me to even see each other.

Even if we meet, we'll act like strangers.

He respects me, but I can't feel close to him.

The second son is different.

He grew up by my side since he was little. He is clever and filial.

My heart, without me even realizing it, has already leaned towards him.

Especially the Crown Prince...

The eldest brother's favor has also become a joke.

At that time, I thought I should let the second son be in charge from now on.

It's better than being resented by the emperor.

But no matter how much I calculated, things didn't go as planned.

I don't care about that anymore.

The second son and Baoyu later.

"Let their children's younger generation worry about it..."

It seems like I've remembered a lot of things.

Grandmother Jia kept talking, sometimes bringing up old stories, and sometimes expressing her worries about the future of her son and grandson.

They say whatever comes to mind, as if they want to say everything in their hearts.

Yuanyang served her for more than ten years.

There were many things she hadn't experienced herself, but she had heard a lot of inside stories.

She knew she had no right to say anything.

I just listened quietly to her talking to herself.

"I don't know if I married the right person or the wrong person as my second son's wife."

Grandmother Jia suddenly sighed, "She has no experience and doesn't get along with my Min'er."

We're just sisters-in-law; I, Min'er, will get married sooner or later.

When the sisters-in-law argued back then, I always turned a blind eye.

Thinking that it would be better if the two of them separated in the future.

did not expect……

Although the second son's wife wasn't very educated, she was a bit slow-witted.

However, she is bold and ruthless.

They knew that Lin Ruhai's ancestors held noble titles and that he was the only son in his lineage.

I never imagined she would be so attached to everything related to the Lin family.

When she first attacked Min'er, I thought she was just retaliating for Min'er's dislike and disrespect.

Knowing that she wanted Lin Ruhai to have no descendants...

I was both shocked and furious, but I also thought her idea was pretty good.

It's not easy for our Duke's mansion to support several hundred people when our public accounts don't have much silver.

In addition, considering Yuan Chun's future, the old woman truly hoped that she could establish herself in the harem.

It’s a pity…”

It's as if Grandmother Jia's energy and spirit were instantly drained away here.

She looked pale and lifeless.

Her eyes were vacant and blank, but her hands were tightly clutching her clothes. "When Min'er got married, she was perfectly fine."

However, her body became increasingly weak.

She finally conceived, but the child she gave birth to was a sickly and weak girl.

She later tried to have a son, but that also cost her her life.

Actually... I know all of this...

Perhaps it's retribution...

All the planning and scheming came to nothing.

So it's retribution, it's retribution..."

……

The Duke of Jin's Mansion.

Li Siqi heard the images transmitted back by the little pot.

It's quite bizarre to think that they would speak of retribution in such a festive atmosphere.

"Regret it?"

Li Siqi found it both funny and infuriating, "Actually, she's no different from Madam Wang."

They are all arrogant and foolish, and extremely greedy.

He was willing to disregard his daughter's life and death for his own greed.

Having a mother like her is truly the worst luck imaginable.

“Master is right.”

Xiao Huzi nodded in agreement, "Back then, Grandmother Jia resented her mother-in-law for taking away her eldest son, Jia She, causing them to be separated and become estranged."

At the same time, she took her anger out on her son Jia She and disliked him from the bottom of her heart.

It was only natural that he favored his second son, Jia Zheng, whom he had raised by his side.

Jia Min is her biological daughter, and she grew up with her mother-in-law, the old lady of Rongguo.

The old lady of Rongguo raised Jia Min to be a true lady of a prominent family.

Jia Min was only qualified to be betrothed to Lin Ruhai, the third-ranked scholar in the imperial examination.

If Jia Min had been raised by her mother herself, she probably wouldn't have developed into a true lady of a prestigious family.

"Grandmother Jia is indeed not good at raising younger generations."

Li Siqi nodded gently, "Jia Yuanchun is someone she cultivated, someone sent into the palace to scheme for wealth and glory."

Not to mention that she has squandered a great opportunity.

In the original drama, her title of Imperial Concubine was merely bestowed by the Emperor to purge the Jia family faction.

Especially during her visit home, in front of so many maids, servants, and eunuchs, she told Grandmother Jia and others that she had "gone to that cannibalistic place."

Is this the kind of thing a concubine could say?

If this gets back to the palace, she'll be dead.

Besides, His Majesty never intended for her to live.

Such a person, who has no sense of propriety, was raised by Jia's mother herself.

Let's take a look at the granddaughters born out of wedlock.

She never taught these granddaughters at all.

Doesn't she know that the marriage of these granddaughters also represents the reputation of the Rongguo Mansion?

It's not that she didn't know, but rather that she was essentially the same kind of person as Madam Wang.

They only care about shoveling food into their own bowls, disregarding the prosperity of their family and the future of their descendants.

A true elder would never indulge the younger generation so much, much less allow them to become ignorant and lacking in knowledge.

The children they care for and raise are just like them.
