Ring Lord of the Red Chamber
Chapter 037
Jia Xiaohuan was relieved to know that the glass firing experiment had been successful.In his previous life, his master left this prescription, but he was unable to test it, and now he has finally confirmed the prescription.
"Huan'er, I've already found someone to cooperate with me on the glass matter, and he's the one who takes the lion's share. In addition, our family still owes him money, so it may take a long time for the profit of the glass to reach us. It will be a drop in the bucket. Speaking of it, uncle owes you a lot in this matter. But don't worry, I won't treat you badly, uncle will definitely ask you for some benefits."
"You gave the prescription..." Jia Xiaohuan poked her finger upwards, and seeing Jia She nod solemnly, she pondered for a moment and said, "This is what it should be. Glass is such a thing, the benefits are too great. If it falls under your name, Uncle, I'm afraid that you don't need outsiders to do anything, and those in the Rong Mansion can force you to surrender. But if it is under the name of that saint, we may enjoy it more with this contribution. Benefit."
Hearing his nephew mention those in the mansion, the veins on the forehead of Mr. She twitched, and he patted his nephew on the shoulder with deep feeling.It's just that there is still his old lady there after all, so the elder didn't want to say much, so he turned around and said: "We can get [-]% of the profit in this business, and uncle has already taken advantage of you. When the debt owed by the treasury is paid off, the two Success is yours."
"With your status, you will always be distributed in the future. There is a precious jade on it, and you can't get a few dollars of property. With this income, you will never be like those clansmen on the back street. Same, I have to live by watching people's faces. I don't need to care about this, and when the family is separated in the future, most of the Rongguo Mansion will be mine."
Hearing his sincere tone, Jia Xiaohuan couldn't help feeling warm, and casually picked up a chopstick of vegetables for him.He had already made up his mind that if his uncle didn't help him with this glass business, he might not be able to get it done by himself, let alone cooperate with the master in the Forbidden City.Therefore, he will never monopolize the share, at least it will be divided equally between uncle and nephew.However, it is still too early to say these things, and it is still important to eat at this time.
"Hey, your life is going well, kid." When the touch of emerald green came into his eyes, Grand Master She immediately exclaimed, and as soon as he raised his hand, he picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth.He hadn't paid attention to the dishes on the table just now, after all, how can there be delicious food in such a rural place?Therefore, I didn't expect that there was a plate of stir-fried garlic and green vegetables on the table.
"Well, the green vegetables are so fresh, as if they were just picked." Master Xi couldn't stop his chopsticks after one bite, staring at the plate of green vegetables that killed most of them, he just stopped and praised.
Since the beginning of winter, the elder has not seen much green vegetables.Green vegetables, no one cares about them when they can always be eaten.But it's been a long time since I can't see each other, but I'm panicking, and I always feel a little bit uncomfortable when I can't eat.Now, it's the time when Grand Master She is having a hard time, and it's easy to catch Qingcai, but he can't have a good time.
"Didn't they just be picked off, they were still growing in the ground this morning." Jia Xiaohuan also held two chopsticks, and said a little proudly.At his age, when he doesn't like vegetables, he doesn't like those green vegetable leaves very much.
"Hiss..." Elder She stopped holding the vegetables with his hands, and stared at Jia Xiaohuan with rounded eyes, "What's the matter, you guys have grown crops in this winter? Now, this thing is not good. It’s cheap, and the supply is in short supply. Anyone in Beijing who sees this kind of dish will be snatched up immediately.”
"A while ago, I took the farmers to plant some, and now it's time to harvest. Tomorrow, I plan to ask them to transport it to Beijing to sell. If my uncle needs it, he will bring some back when he leaves. If he is afraid that it will not be fresh, It’s okay to ask someone to deliver some to you every two days tomorrow. I’m planting here continuously, and it’s probably not until February or March.” At that time, spring had already begun, and the price of green vegetables was also low. It came down.
When Grand Master She heard this, he immediately became interested.He sped up the speed of his men, finished two bowls of rice in three or five strokes, poured down another bowl of soup, patted his full stomach, and said: "This is a rare thing. I only heard that they spent winter in Xiaotangshan Hot Spring Village. There is a kind of green vegetable, but I didn’t expect that it can be grown in places like Miyun. Your kid also eats faster, and take me there to see it after eating.”
"It's rare, but it's just applying the principle of a greenhouse to growing vegetables. When the large plate glass is available, the greenhouse can be made better and more types of vegetables can be grown." Jia Xiaohuan He also put down his chopsticks, but instead of going to the greenhouse with Jia She, he called Liu San, "Accompany the old man to the greenhouse, see if there is anything he needs, and ask someone to pick some for him."
"Yo, you are sending me away." Elder She rumpled Jia Xiaohuan's hair, wrapped his cloak again, and went out with Liu San.He came here to give Jia Cong and the glass, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest.
Huan'er, I really don't know how many surprises I want to give him!
After sending Jia Amnesty away, Jia Huan went to Aunt Zhao's side to see Jia Cong.By the way, we also need to see if we can get something out of Jia Cong, why the uncle sent him here on purpose.
In Aunt Zhao's room, Jia Cong was sitting on the kang, grabbing preserved plums and stuffing them into his mouth.On the kang table in front of him, there were four large plates containing peanut cakes, chestnut cakes, sugar-fried chestnuts and melon seeds.Aunt Zhao was sitting opposite Jia Cong, clutching a handful of melon seeds, teasing him while nibbling.
Seeing this scene, Jia Xiaohuan felt a little depressed for a while.In fact, these two are the mother and daughter, right? !
Fortunately, Aunt Zhao's eyes were very sharp, she saw him at a glance, and hurriedly called him over loudly.When he got close, he even hugged him and sat beside him, "Dining with the old man, is it ready? I also specially left chicken soup and asked them to heat a bowl for you, okay? You can eat it all day long." What kind of exercises are you practicing here, you can't treat your appetite badly, otherwise how can your body bear it?"
As she spoke, she was about to raise her voice and ask someone to make chicken soup or something.After so many years in Rongguo Mansion, she knew that the old man was not kind and kind. She was afraid that her son would eat with the old man, and it would be bad if she couldn't let go of it.
"Mother, don't worry about it, I've eaten. Uncle, he is much better than the master." Being so cared by mother, Jia Xiaohuan felt much more at ease, "It's you, don't eat so many melon seeds, this If the food is too dry, if you eat too much, you will get angry."
Here the mother and son are caring for each other, while Jia Xiaocong on the opposite side is still chewing and eating, but his big eyes are looking at them without blinking, full of envy and expectation.
From a long time ago, he was particularly envious of brother Huan, because brother Huan had a mother, but he only had a nanny.From the time he could remember, he had never seen his mother, and always wanted to see her.
Although the nanny told him that his wife was his mother, he knew that the wife's mother was different from Brother Huan's mother.What he wanted was Brother Huan's mother, not his wife.
It was as if at this moment, brother Huan's mother would hug him, talk to him with a smile, and look at him without turning his eyes... But, the wife has never treated him like this.When his wife treated him, she either asked him a few words and dismissed him, or caught him and reprimanded him.
He doesn't like his wife at all!
"Cong'er, have you been doing well in the mansion recently? Why did you come here with your uncle today, but you cheated on him? The uncle said that he would leave you here, even after the Chinese New Year. I don't want you to go back home." Jia Xiaohuan raised his eyes, saw Jia Cong's expression, reached out and pinched his cheek lightly.
"No. I was led by the master before I woke up in the morning. When I woke up, I was already in the carriage." Jia Xiaocong didn't hide from Jia Huan's hand, but rubbed against him. , Duzui said: "It's better if you don't go back to the mansion. Brother Huan is not in the mansion either. It's very boring in the mansion. A young lady came here a while ago, but she was only going around Brother Bao. I didn't even see her." Once."
A young lady is here?Jia Xiaohuan pondered for a while, then remembered that it was Lin Daiyu who had come.During the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, the Lin family sent someone to bring the sad news that the aunt Jia Min passed away.Counting the days, it was probably around this time in the last life when the Lin family sent that cousin Lin here.
Jia Xiaohuan didn't have much affection for that little cousin. The two had lived in the same house for more than ten years in their previous lives, but they hadn't even met each other a few times.Now that I hear that she has come to Beijing, I just listen to it, at most I sigh for her "Life is hard".
However, there are many people suffering from misfortune in this world, and even Jia Huan himself is not a lucky man, so he has no time to lament and sigh for other people's misfortune.What he wants, hopes, and works hard now is to change the fate of himself and his mother, and change their suffering.
"Why, we can't even go back to the house for the New Year?" Aunt Zhao heard this for the first time, she threw away the melon seeds in her hand, and asked with a pair of almond eyes: "Son, isn't the smallpox all gone? Now, our mother and son are fine, why don't you tell us to go back? Even if you are a concubine, you are still a descendant of the Jia family. You have to go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors during the Chinese New Year. How can you not go back to the house..."
She thought she was in a hurry, and her voice became a little shrill at the end, her eyes seemed to be breathing fire.Now it's the twelfth lunar month, and she is still thinking about when to send someone to send a message, asking when the mansion will send someone to pick them up.
"Mother, what's the matter, wouldn't it be better if we don't ask to go back. Let's celebrate the New Year in Zhuangzi by ourselves, so it's more comfortable, and we don't have to go everywhere to accompany Smiley and kowtow to say hello. You don't have to worry about eating well , isn’t it that Cong’er is still here, uncle will bring us New Year’s goods, so we won’t treat you badly.” Jia Xiaohuan hurriedly hugged his mother.arm, comforted softly.
"Stinky boy, I'm not worried about this. I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Aunt Zhao looked at her son's face, her heart was full of worry, "Huan'er, I'm afraid that you won't be asked to go back this first year, From now on, they will get used to it and gradually forget about you. My son, you are also a descendant of the Rongguo Mansion, so they can't treat you like this. "
Jia Xiaohuan leaned against Aunt Zhao's arms, but smiled in her heart, he hoped that the picker in Beijing would forget him.It's just that he can't tell his mother about this at this time, he raised his face and smiled and said: "Mother, no. You see, the eldest uncle is here today, and he sent Cong'er to be my companion .”
"No, I don't know if your father knows about this, but I have to send him a letter." Aunt Zhao didn't seem to hear what he said, and she murmured in her mouth: "Master pays attention to etiquette most. All the children and grandchildren will be present at the time, and he will not tell you that you are missing. Huan'er, do you think we should ask the elder to bring a message, or send someone to Beijing?"
"Mother, there's no need, I don't want to go back home for the New Year."
As soon as he said this, Aunt Zhao stared at him, and the mother and son began to stare.Just when they were figuring out how to persuade each other, they suddenly heard the milk voice on the other side yelling:
"I'm not going back for the New Year either."
"Huan'er, I've already found someone to cooperate with me on the glass matter, and he's the one who takes the lion's share. In addition, our family still owes him money, so it may take a long time for the profit of the glass to reach us. It will be a drop in the bucket. Speaking of it, uncle owes you a lot in this matter.

"With your status, you will always be distributed in the future. There is a precious jade on it, and you can't get a few dollars of property. With this income, you will never be like those clansmen on the back street. Same, I have to live by watching people's faces.
