【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

Chapter 199 Grandmother Jia 1

"Awake!"

The sound of chanting in the air suddenly stopped, and the huge golden nanmu coffin was lifted up by sixteen strong young men. These young men had strong muscles and were as twisted as dragons, but they were still sweating profusely.

Yun Xi stood there in a daze, watching everything like a passerby.

Two men with delicate faces were being carried to hold a coffin while people around them were crying, it was a miserable scene.

Then we saw the coffin placed in a temple. Everyone paid their respects according to the rules and returned home in the evening.

"System, what are you doing to me?"

She only knew that she had been guarding the hospital for two days. When she saw Zhixing wake up, she was tired and took a taxi back to rest. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she found herself in ancient times. After completing a few tasks, she understood her situation.

"Please, I want to go see Zhixing after I rest, and stock up the space!" Yun Xi was speechless, "I didn't expect to start the next task so soon."

"This is the punishment from above. I was punished even more severely for informing you. You will be locked up in a small dark room. This task is up to you. I have put everything in the system space into your growth space. Bye~"

The system shut down after saying this.

Yun Xi:......

Oh my god, so those props can only be used for yourself and tasks, why?

Yun Xi thought that in the future she could give the use to whoever she wanted, and if she was punished, she would be punished. There was nothing she could do, she was a rebellious person. Moreover, she and Zhi Xing were not just friends, they were like family. When she was sick, the Zhang family took care of her, and now Zhi Xing was dying, so of course she would save her if she could!

When Yun Xi came back to her senses, she saw a heroic-looking woman serving beside her. She asked, "Madam, the kitchen has cooked some rouge rice porridge and a few side dishes. Would you like to try some?"

Only then did Yun Xi feel hungry.

"Let's set the table."

She elegantly finished a bowl of porridge, a plate of yam cake stuffed with date paste, and also finished stir-fried bean sprouts with oil and salt, and stir-fried bamboo shoots.

"Everyone, please leave. I'm going to take a nap."

Yun Xi waved her hand and asked everyone to leave. She slept alone from the evening until after four in the morning of the next day.

Seeing that it was still early, she first absorbed the original owner's memories. Yun Xi felt complicated. She actually traveled to the place of 39-year-old Jia Mu, and her husband Jia Daishan's funeral had just ended.

It is now October of the 42nd year in Corning.

"Amazing! I have to observe mourning again. I have experience with this."

She hadn't read much of "Dream of the Red Chamber", but she had watched the TV series. There was also a craze for Redology and a craze for the pairing of Daiyu and Wukong, and she saw a lot of them when watching videos.

There are many different opinions on whether Lady Jia is smart or foolish. What is Yun Xi's opinion? She thinks Lady Jia is foolish.

Lady Jia comes from the Shi family, one of the four major families. The four kings, eight dukes and twelve marquises are headed by the nouveau riche Jia family. Basically, they are all families with little background, and the Shi family is no exception. Therefore, Yun Xi feels that although Lady Jia was brought up as a lady from a noble family, she would pretend when her parents-in-law and husband were still alive. With no one to suppress her, the shortcomings of the nouveau riche were fully exposed.

This also explains why Lady Jia is so willful and close to her second daughter-in-law. Of course, she wants to be close to her second son, but it is also because the girl from the Wang family is illiterate and does not value rules, and they have similar interests.

Didn't Grandmother Jia know what the rules were? She certainly knew, and if she still did this, she would be being willful. This is what children raised in families without a solid foundation are like. Once no one is controlling them, they are prone to falling into self-indulgence.

"Madam, are you awake? The eldest and second uncles have come to pay their respects."

This is too early. Yun Xi frowned, "Glass, call me at the end of the Mao hour next time. Also, tell them to go back first and come to pay their respects at the beginning of the Chen hour next time."

"Yes." The head maid Boli was stunned, and quickly lowered her head and retreated. It was the end of the Yin hour, still early. And, after the male master passed away, the lady would be the old lady in the future, and she would not have to manage the household anymore. Naturally, she would not have to get up early if she did not manage the household.

Jia Min asked with red eyes, "Sister Boli, isn't mother awake yet?"

Jia She is only 22 years old, Jia Zheng is 20 years old, and Jia Min is only 10 years old. The sudden death of their father is a huge blow to them.

"Miss San, the old lady said that from now on, you can get up at the end of Mao time and come to pay your respects at the beginning of Chen time." Glass explained softly.

Mrs. Wang lowered her head and said nothing.

Jia She nodded, "Then let's go back first and come back at noon."

"Farewell, Master, Madam, Second Master, Second Madam, First Miss, Second Miss, Third Miss, and Fourth Miss." Boli bowed, and the other maids on guard followed suit.

Hearing the noise outside, Yun Xi rubbed her forehead. Grandmother Jia had three sons and one daughter. The eldest son died young and had no age order. Then there were three biological children, Jia She, Jia Zheng and Jia Min. In addition, there were three concubines, Jia Wan, Jia E and Jia Xian. All three of them had their own families. They returned to their parents' home to mourn after Jia Daishan passed away and had not left yet. They had close contact with the Jia family when Jia Daishan was alive, but after his death, the three concubines had little contact with the Jia family.

It can be seen that the relationship between the legitimate mother and the concubine's daughter is average.

At the beginning of the Chen period, Yun Xi had just started eating when the people who came to pay their respects in the morning came again, this time with their three sons-in-law.

"Greetings to mother." A group of people saluted together.

"Don't be polite." Yun Xi was overwhelmed and rubbed his forehead. "Let's sit down and have a meal together. We still have things to do after dinner."

Jia She was surprised that his mother seemed to treat him no differently than his younger brother.

Jia She led Zhang, who was holding Jia Hu, who was less than a year old, and sat in the first and second seats to Yun Xi's left. Jia Zheng led Wang to sit in the third and fourth seats to the left. On the right sat Jia Min, who was in the first seat, and then the three concubines' daughters and sons-in-law...

After finishing the meal quietly, the maids cleaned the table in a well-trained manner. Yun Xi rubbed her forehead.

"Before your father passed away, he left a will. The emperor, out of pity for his father, bestowed upon the second son the title of Director of the Ministry of Revenue. In a few days, remember to go through the formalities and apply for leave to come back and observe the mourning period." Yun Xi recalled the original owner's memories. "You, eldest son, will inherit the title of First-Class General."

Jia Min looked at this and that, puzzled, "Mother, why is it a first-class general title?"

"Don't ask about this." Yun Xi frowned, "The boss's wife will stay here, you guys can go back first."

Jia Zheng looked up at his mother with an ambiguous look, then turned and left quickly.

Jia She was puzzled, "Mother?"

Yun Xi interrupted him, "Boli, take your men out to guard it."

"Yes!"

When only she and the eldest brother and his wife were left in the room, Yun Xi said something that made Jia She shiver all over.

"The higher-ups want you to inherit the title, and the second son to inherit the family property. I don't know what's happening outside, but I can see that the emperor wants to weaken the Jia family and the four princes and eight dukes." Yun Xi covered her mouth and lowered her voice.

Jia She and Zhang Shi turned pale, and Zhang Shi trembled and said, "Mother, is there no other way?"

"Yes! When you become very weak and sensible, I will naturally let you go. But now half of the court is filled with the four princes and eight dukes. How can Your Majesty not be disgusted?"
