dream of red mansion

He knew that Aunt Xue remembered Jia Qing's favor for what happened last time.She knew that the reason why Du Feng did not sue Xue Pan after waking up was because of Lai Jiaqing's comfort.

For this reason, she specially sent 2000 taels of silver over, saying it was compensation for Du Feng!

Jia Qing unceremoniously accepted it for Du Feng.

Speaking of which, Xue Pan is still in his hands now, but Jia Qing sent someone to "report his safety" to Lixiangyuan every few days. Aunt Xue still doesn't know Xue Pan's situation, she only thinks that he is greedy for the scenery outside and wants more money. Came back after playing for a few days.

In this way, Jia Qing felt that he was a bit too black-bellied.

But he quickly skipped this level and answered Aunt Xue's questions one by one.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Where's Sister Bao?"

Aunt Xue's complexion darkened, and she was about to speak when Xue Baochai happened to come over.

"Brother Qing is here." Xue Baochai bowed gracefully.

Jia Qing quickly stood up and returned the salute, and when Xue Baochai greeted her mother, she took the opportunity to sit by the tea table.

"I heard that the eldest sister in your family has become a concubine today, why are you free to come over now?"

Xue Baochai asked.

Jia Qing said: "There is something I want to ask my aunt's for help."

Aunt Xue hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"I heard that my aunt's house used to provide stone materials to the palace, because our mansion wants to renovate the garden and needs to use a lot of stone materials. I want to ask my aunt for advice."

Jia Qing was relentless and directly explained his intention.

Aunt Xue said: "That's true, but now these businesses are all in Nanjing, thousands of miles away from here."

Jia Qing said with a smile: "That's okay, the garden scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is better than that in the north, and I don't want ordinary stones for walls and floors. I only want those rare and precious rocks for decoration. As long as there are good ones, It doesn't take much to install it on a ship!

It's just that my aunt's house doesn't have one, but I know there is one anyway, and I can give my nephew some pointers, and my nephew will be very grateful. "

Aunt Xue laughed and said: "It's not difficult. If there is something in my family, I don't have it. You asked me for something so easily, and I have to do it for you no matter what. Otherwise, you should feel that Auntie is useless." up.

I will send someone back when I turn around, and ask the old man at home to help you set it up.It's a pity that your elder brother Xue is not here, otherwise let him go and get it for you in person.That's good.

By the way, how much do you want? "

"Auntie was joking, why doesn't Auntie know?

As for how much you want, as long as it is rare, the more the better. "

Aunt Xue, mother and daughter were puzzled, Xue Baochai said: "There is also a certain number of needs for repairing the garden. If you want so many stones, don't you have other land?"

Jia Qing said with a flattering smile: "Sister Bao is really smart, you immediately saw through her!"

Xue Baochai suffocated, apparently still unable to fully adapt to Jia Qing's way of speaking, he was speechless.

Aunt Xue laughed and said: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll ask them to make an inventory first. If it's not enough, my family still knows a few of my own trade, and then I'll just buy it from other houses."

Jia Qing got up and thanked: "If that's the case, I will trouble Auntie."

"Don't bother, don't bother."

"About the cost..."

"How much is the stone worth? Auntie's family still has some money. It's rare that you beg me, and Auntie can still collect your money. No need to trouble, no trouble." Aunt Xue said with a straight smile.

Stones are worthless, but exotic stones are.Pulling a boat so far away, I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver!

It's impossible for Aunt Xue to be unclear.Although it may be a polite remark, but being able to promise to help, and still say that, it can be seen that it is love.

Jia Qing laughed and said: "Although my aunt is generous and doesn't want to take my nephew's money, the servants and shop assistants have to pay their wages, and I don't have to ask my aunt to do something, but ask my aunt's family to pay the money.

It doesn't make sense to spread it out. "

Aunt Xue didn't even ask, Jia Qing said: "Auntie is like this, so I don't dare to bother Auntie in the future."

Xue Baochai heard this and said: "Mom, let's hear my brother clearly. He is also a person of status. Mom only treats him as a child and doesn't take money from him. Others will not think that Mom is kind when they hear it, but they will be behind their backs." Hun said that he took advantage of his relatives, and spreading the word would be bad for his reputation!

If Mom really loves him, she has to check it carefully, don't ask the people below to pretend to be good, just fool him, this is the real pain!

In this way, even if he bothers others to do things in the future, they will not worry about losing money. "

Jia Qing looked sideways, she really shouldn't underestimate this woman, she can tell such a truth and take care of the face of both parties, among the girls Jia Qing has met, she is probably the only one who can handle things like this.

Sure enough, Aunt Xue said: "I guess I was wrong... So, I will follow what you said."

Jia Qing said: "Then I will send the fixed silver to my aunt later..."

Xue Baochai said: "You are confused again, you don't want to make us suffer, and you want to settle accounts clearly, which is also reasonable.

It's just that there is no need to do everything in a businesslike manner.Could it be that in order to help you once, even the love of relatives can't be thrown away?

The one who decides decides.The money was originally made to bind both parties and not to break the contract.

Could it be that our two families have lost even this bit of credit?You're just like Mom, you're only being polite, if we have to charge you a fixed amount in advance for helping you once, wouldn't it be looked down upon by others? "

Well, you win the argument!

Jia Qingxin said, and only said in her mouth: "Sister is right, everything is according to my sister..."

Coming out of Lixiangyuan, Jia Qing straightly thought: If you marry this girl home, you will have no worries in the back house!

Originally, Aunt Xue wanted to stay for dinner, but Jia Qing said that there were still things to deal with, so she resigned with great difficulty.

I was thinking of going back to the mansion directly, but also thought that I hadn't seen Qingwen for a few days, and it was so close, so I turned my way into the side courtyard of the East Courtyard of Rongguo Mansion.

"Second Master is here!"

Jia Qing entered the yard, but didn't see Qingwen, only the little girl who was dozing off last time.

"Where's your sister Qingwen?"

"out."

Jia Qing guessed that he went to play with Sanchun and others, but he didn't enter the room, and said with a smile: "Why don't you fall asleep this time?"

The little servant girl said embarrassedly: "Just that one time..."

Jia Qing shook his head and was about to leave, but suddenly turned around and asked: "Is there anything going on in the mansion these days?"
