Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

What Jia Zheng was worried about was that he was old but could not give birth to anyone who could inherit the family business.

Jia Zhu was very good, but his life was short. It was a waste of time to lie to him and worry about him, and he would be gone at the age of twenty.

Baoyu was born with a good birth, and he was born with jade in his hand. Originally, he had high hopes for him. But when Baoyu caught Zhou, he caught a box of rouge, and he behaved innocently on weekdays. Jia Zheng taught Baoyu carefully several times, but Baoyu was young but had weird ideas, so he disliked Baoyu.

The third son Jia Huan was still young, so Jia Zheng only looked at his twin sister. Tanchun's acting style was grand, and Jia Zheng couldn't help but love the house and the crow, and he had a good impression of both Aunt Zhao and Jia Huan.

Besides, he didn't have high requirements for Jia Huan. As long as a concubine could spread his branches and help his legitimate son shine, it would be fine.

Therefore, when he was over fifty years old, seeing the powerlessness of his successors and thinking about meeting his ancestors after his death, he felt speechless.

He was so disappointed in Baoyu that when he heard the words of protecting his family from Baoyu's mouth, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

If God does not destroy my Jia family, I will let Baoyu know what is going on.

Jia Zheng's eyes were hot, and he couldn't help but speak kind words to Baoyu. He expressed his sincerity and expressed his desire for his son to grow up and share the burden of the family.

"Good boy, we still want you to inherit our family. Whether it is good or bad depends on you. My father is already old, and I don't know what day he will leave Hexi. Such a big business..."

Jia Zheng wiped his tears, regained his composure, and laughed again:

"How can I support such a big business by myself? My dear boy, you have grown up."

I was even more happy to know that Xue Baochai took the risk to leak out the story about King Beijing's plot against the Jia family. Even Baochai No. 2 has to be looked up to a bit higher.

In Jia Zheng's view, the Xue family's property already belongs to the Jia family. When he persuaded the Xue family to live in the Jia family, what he valued most was the fact that the Xue family had orphans, widows, and no one to rely on.

He didn't even want to share this benefit with Wang Ziteng, so why would he see King Beijing come to interfere?

Jia Zheng is not a prude, coveting relatives and property. It's just that the Xue family has no man in charge. Xue Pan is too bastard, so he will only pass on the incense in the future.

He doesn't have the ability to look after the house, and he can't protect the family property in his hands.

Jia Zheng thought that he would only protect Xue Pan until he grew up safely, got a wife and had children, and that would be the end of it if he could bring the family business back to life. At Baochai No. 2, a girl with a name raised by the Jia family can only find a good son-in-law.

He thought he had a clear conscience, so he naturally didn't expect the Xue family to complain about him. Aunt Xue and Xue Pan thought he was greedy and wanted to eat the Xue family, so they borrowed Mrs. Wang's hand and reached into the inner courtyard of the Jia family.

Baoyu raised his head in surprise and saw his old father's eyes filled with tears, and then he realized that he had wrongly blamed his father all these years.

It's not that his father doesn't trust him or loves him, it's just that his love is so deep that it can't be expressed in words.

For a moment in the house, the father was kind and the son was filial, and the tangles of the past were resolved. Aunt Zhao outside the house gritted her teeth when she heard this, and threw down her pillow when she returned home.

Jia Huan was playing with the little girl in her room, and couldn't help laughing when he saw her acting like this.

He couldn't stand the timid look on his biological mother's face. He was so angry outside that he only dared to throw the pillow.

"You're laughing your ass off!"

Aunt Zhao was already angry, but when she saw Jia Huan laughing at her, she immediately became angry. She twisted her son's ears and chanted:

"You still have time to laugh. Your damn old man only regards Baoyu as a treasure. We both heard it true. He wants to leave the family fortune to Baoyu. When the time comes, your little grandson will drink from the northwest wind. Mother will also You will suffer the consequences. If I had known you were so useless, why would I have done anything to you? I just told you that you would never be reborn and become a lonely ghost!"

"Do you think I want to enter your belly?"

Jia Huan covered her ears and saw that the little girl had run away long after Aunt Zhao came in, so she didn't look for her. He just wiped his nose and said wretchedly:

"You really want to give birth to Baoyu, but you don't have the ability. Why are you stronger than me now? If I throw myself into your belly, I won't be able to inherit the family business even if I am the number one scholar. Unless all the Jia family members die, it will be my turn. If you complain to God, why don't you ask me for a few more pieces of silver to give me a hand? I bet with Brother Qiang, but he called me a pauper."

"He? A bastard bastard who was reincarnated as an evil spirit from nowhere. How dare you accuse you?"

When Aunt Zhao heard that her son had suffered a loss, she felt distressed again. Seeing Jia Huan rubbing her nose, she immediately took out a fragrant handkerchief from her arms and rubbed Jia Huan's nose.

While rubbing and cursing, he scolded Jia Huan's nanny and servants. Then he remembered that his son would only be able to get a small amount of property from the house when he became an adult, so he gritted his teeth and cursed Jia Huan's family to death.

Jia Huan's nose was itched even more by Aunt Zhao's handkerchief. He sneezed hard in response to Aunt Zhao's words.

"Isn't it easy for them to die? If only one of them surrenders to the enemy and treason, the whole family will be in trouble. If I know such a news and secretly report it to the court, not only will I not die, maybe I will also have a title!"

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Although Aunt Zhao is scared when she hears the word "Lingchi", she prefers to hear that her son has a title.

Isn't the reason why Jia Mu is so awesome because her son has a title?

Aunt Zhao was not a fool. When she asked whether such a thing of "killing relatives for justice" could lead to a high position, her eyes couldn't help but glow green.

After that, nothing happened for several days.

The war in the south of the Yangtze River became more and more intense. The emperor was so worried that even his ministers became honest.

King Beijing sent away the foreign missions and acquired all the Xue family's shops, making a fortune.

Of course, on the surface, the Xue family is still the Xue family, except that the Xue family's shops in Jiangnan were sold to King Beijing at a low price on the grounds of war danger.

Shui Rong also intervened in other shops, and set up a second shopkeeper, who took the profits in his hands with actual control rights.

After he finished eating the Xue family, before wiping his mouth clean, he looked at the Jia family with eager eyes. Little did he know that Jia Zheng had already collected information about his collaboration with the enemy and betrayed the country based on Baoyu Baochai's information and secretly taught it to the emperor.

There was indeed no movement from the Jia family, Wang family, Shi family, and Lin family, but the person who watched the movement of King Beijing became the emperor.

Prince Teng was also secretly dispatched by the emperor to Sichuan, Chongqing, Jiangxi and other places, and quietly surrounded Jiangnan to see how General Zhen's family fought against the enemy.

They were fighting life and death outside, but in Rongguo Mansion, Baochai and Baoyu were playing chess calmly.

After all, they are still young and can only come up with some small ideas. Outside matters are still decided by the adults.

The two of them used the chess game to see if there were any flaws. After careful calculation, they felt relieved when they saw that the crisis was under control.

Baochai knew that Baoyu had been kind to Daiyu in his previous life, and he was not unintentional towards her. Baoyu is naturally passionate, and although he now reveals that he regards her as his only thing, it is impossible for Baoyu to give up Baochai No. 2.

Now that Baochai No. 2 has helped her endure those hardships, she can't help but plan for her.

"Can you beg uncle? How will the Xue family be settled after the incident is over? How will Sister Bao be settled?"
