The Lin family has a lot of properties in Gusu, as well as a lot in Jinling. What Lin Ruhai meant was to exchange farms and shops with the same price as the Yan family in Jinling from the properties in Gusu, so that the Yan family arrived in Gusu. In the future, I no longer need to work hard to buy it, and my family has more family business in Jinling, and the following stewards will take care of it anyway.

When Lin Ruhai came to Jinling, he asked someone to inquire about the Yan family, and he knew that the Yan family’s farms and shops were all good, especially the silk and satin shop was the best in the Yan family’s income, earning hundreds of taels of profit every year, and the most important thing was that the shop was next door to the Lin family’s shop, so Most of the shopfronts on a street belong to the Lin family, some of them are rented out, and the other part is ordered to open a shop. The whole street sells makeup, hair, oil, satin, hairpins and the like. Lin Ruhai plans to leave the shopfront on that street to Dai Jade is used as a dowry, and one more shop is really a wish.

If Jia Min knew what he was thinking, he would definitely be dumbfounded. There was no sign of his children, so he saved up a dowry for his daughter first. She thought it was rich enough to leave those things to her daughter. Now there are antiques and shops, which one? Are you willing to accompany your daughter so much?It was Jia Min herself, as the daughter of the Duke of the State, the 5 taels of ten-mile red makeup was already astonishing.

However, Lin Ruhai doesn't think so, but in all aristocratic families, the parents of the prostitute's dowry will be accumulated by the parents after she is born. Jia Min only saved money for Daiyu until he came to Beijing, and he didn't fulfill his duty. Naturally, he has to compensate Daiyu in this life. suffer any grievances.

Gu Yue clapped his palms and smiled, and said, "Brother Ru Hai's move is very good." Although the Lin family is not as good as before, the lean camels are bigger than horses, and the Zhen family and Jia family are the first-class families in Jinling, and they are old relatives. The latter is Lin Ruhai's Yue family, and others will not find out if the Lin family is wrong.

Mr. Yan hesitated a little, and said, "Isn't it too much trouble for Brother Ruhai?"

Lin Ruhai hurriedly laughed and said: "Wansheng has long thought about buying some property in Jinling. Now the farm and shop in Mr.'s house is very good, which just saves Wansheng from the pain of running around. It is the best of both worlds, so there is no trouble."

Gu Yue nodded at the side, and advised Mr. Yan, after all, there is no easier solution than this.

Mr. Yan was very grateful in his heart, after a little thought, he agreed.

Lin Ruhai discussed with Mr. Yan again, and exchanged them after they had seen the farmhouses and shops in Gusu and they were satisfied. Mr. Yan knew his intentions and readily agreed, and at the same time told his eldest son Yan Bin and the housekeeper to stay at home until the exchange It is better to hand over with the Lin family, and then go to the Gusu family to reunite after the incident.

After everything was settled, and an auspicious day was chosen for departure, Lin Ruhai and Gu Yue left Yan's house.

After leaving the Yan's house, Lin Ruhai immediately ordered the second housekeeper to take care of it, so as not to disturb the tranquility of the Yan's house by the unsightly people like Jin Caiyigan, the second housekeeper was extremely shrewd and took care of it himself.

Gu Yue smiled and said, "Brother Ru Hai, if you do this today, you won't be afraid of offending the Ling Yue family?"

Lin Ruhai smiled, but said nothing.

When Gu Yue saw this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he also smiled.

Lin Ruhai is young and promising, he only needs to take part in the palace examination to become an official, and he was born from the imperial examination, rather than relying on the shadow of his ancestors. No one will say that he is reckless in his belly. Si, if you are not happy enough, how could you blame Lin Ruhai for a few servants.

Lin Ruhai stayed in Jinling for a few more days, and only after the Yan's house was tidied up and it was an auspicious day did he go with him.

When they went back, Lin Ruhai also took Zhang Dahu with him, and recuperated at Lin's house for a few days, fed and dressed warmly, Zhang Dahu recovered immediately, he looked like a tiger, but he was actually very smart.

Lin Ruhai was very satisfied with him. He heard that he had read a few books with his mother and could read a few words, so he promised to wait for him to go back and ask him to go to the academy to study too. Zhang Dahu was so happy that he didn't know what to do. Just kowtow to Lin Ruhai.

When they arrived in Gusu, Jia Min had already received the news, and the guest rooms had been cleaned and arranged. Hearing that they had arrived, she hurried to the second gate to welcome Mrs. Yan and other female relatives to enter, while the male guests outside were greeted by Lin Ruhai.

Mrs. Yan is about half a hundred years old, and even her two daughters-in-law are older than Jia Min. She is kind-hearted and kind-hearted. When she saw Jia Min, she couldn't help being surprised. Afterwards, when they were exchanging greetings, when talking about Lin Ruhai's help, she was full of praise for Lin Ruhai, and Jia Min felt honored after hearing that.

Lin Ruhai accompanied Mr. Yan to visit the academy on the second day. The front and rear buildings of the academy have already been repaired, and the tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper and inkstone books are also complete. Several courtyards in the backyard are reserved for the teacher. He Xiucai has his own family business, so he doesn't need to live here, so it's empty and uninhabited. Mr. Yan thinks that even if he wants to move here, he plans to wait for the new farm and shop to be packed before moving out, so they only live in the forest. Stayed at home for a day.

Lin Ruhai took Mr. Yan to look at farm shops again. Mr. Yan carefully selected a house that was very close to the academy. It also had three entrances, with elegant flowers and trees. In addition, there was a silk and satin village with more than 100 mu of good farmland and more than 200 mu of medium-sized farmland. .

Seeing this, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but smile.

When it comes to land and housing prices, Gusu is cheaper than Jinling, and Mr. Yan's behavior is a testament to his character.

It was so easy to settle Mr. Yan's family properly, and only one of the four gentlemen was missing. Lin Ruhai carefully inquired, and finally chose a scholar from a poor family, named Zhang Xin, who is 20 years old this year. Although he can read and write, he is not like others. He can't lift his hands. Whenever the farming season is busy, he will accompany his parents to work in the fields. He is very capable and filial.

The academy was on the right track, Lin Ruhai had time to play with Gu Yue for a few days, and persuaded him to return to Beijing, so as not to worry about his son traveling thousands of miles away, and after sending him away, he was relieved and was talking to Jia Min about what he saw and heard in Jinling However, the letter from the Li family arrived.

Lin Ruhai opened the letter and saw that most of the contents were known to him, so he didn't think it was surprising, but there was still something on his face.

Jia Min couldn't help feeling suspicious, and asked, "What did you say in the letter?"

She remembered the group of servants that the Lin family had dealt with before, and heard from Lin Ruhai that the Jin family, who were looking at the old house in Jinling, could actually spend 5000 taels of silver to buy the family business, and they were also domineering. Even if the manager's affairs are like this, I don't know how much the servants in the capital are greedy, but there must be only a lot.

Lin Ruhai handed the letter to her without saying a word.

Let Jia Min know what the Rongguo Mansion is doing. Li Xun's letter is not only about Jia Lian's affairs, but also about the Rongguo Mansion's affairs. In addition, he never thought of keeping Jia Min from knowing about the affairs of the court. So that you don't know the importance of socializing with people outside.

After watching it, Jia Min couldn't help sighing, "I really have nothing to say."

When she was talking, there was a flash of embarrassment in her eyes. Her natal family was doing something wrong, but her husband knew about it, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Lin Ruhai comforted: "If it wasn't for the letter from the Li family, how would we know these things, but you and I are juniors with foreign surnames, so there is no reason to dictate to the Yue family."

Jia Min smiled wryly and said, "Why don't I know? It's just that I hope they will be better after all. I was afraid that my elder brother and Lian'er would be wronged, especially since Lian'er is still young and has no sister-in-law to take care of her, so Tete brought her back to the capital in Lai Da. In the letter, he proposed that the eldest brother help Ling return to his hometown, and take Lian'er to observe filial piety in Jinling. Please take care of me. After reading the letter sent by Mr. Li, I hope that big brother can understand my painstaking efforts."

The last time Jia Amnesty didn't reply to her letter, to be honest, she felt a little sad in her heart, and at the same time she was secretly annoyed, annoyed that big brother was so incompetent and still refused to change a bit.

Lin Ruhai smiled lightly, and said, "I'm afraid that your painstaking efforts will be difficult for my uncle to understand."

He can clearly see Jia She's temperament. He didn't like Jia She's temperament in his previous life. Although he has changed a little in this life, he actually doesn't like him. According to Jia She's temperament, even if he keeps his father's filial piety, he can't stand loneliness. Everyone watched his every move, nothing compared to being in Rongguo Mansion, where he could fool around with his little wife as he wanted, no one dared to say no.

Jia Zhen Xiaoli gambled and went whoring, Jia Lian Xiaoli stopped his wife and remarried, and Jia She was a hungry ghost, and it was the same in his previous life. Lin Ruhai only learned about it from some friends after he became an official in Beijing. Since then, Jia She has become indifferent.

After Jia She received the letter a few years ago, although he felt wronged by Jia Zheng's first room living in Rongxi Hall, he was reluctant to let go of the prosperity of Beijing. Jia Lian was often picked up by Li's family. Replying to my sister's letter, this time I can't do it like this, so I have to write, and reluctantly replied a letter, all of which rejected Jia Min's proposal.

After Jia Min received the letter, she was immediately disappointed.

Her grandfather and father were two generations of state princes. She was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child. Apart from the princess and princess, she has the highest status among all the famous ladies in the capital, and she is proud of her natal family.Now married as Lin's wife, thousands of miles apart, and because of the death of her parents-in-law, although the mother kept saying that she loved her the most among her children, she could still feel a little colder than before.

Thinking about it, Eldest Brother also thinks that Mr. Lin has passed away, so there is no benefit in getting along with his family, so why is Fang always trying to shirk it?

Jia Min sighed secretly, although she was disappointed in her heart, except for Lin Ruhai, she never showed half of it to others, lest others think that she was at odds with her natal family, which would delay Lin Ruhai's future, Jia Daishan was gone, but the old Japanese general He is still in the court, and many people in the army still remember Jia Daishan's kindness.

At that time, it was already February next year, when the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming. Lin Ruhai persuaded Jia Min to go to the temple to offer incense. It was the day of offering incense, but unexpectedly the report was delivered to the mansion. After reading it, Lin Ruhai suddenly said, "I can't go."

Jamin Nahan asked, "Why?"

Lin Ruhai handed her the residence report in his hand, and said with a smile, "Who do you think is the new prefect of Suzhou?"

When Jia Min saw it, he was both surprised and happy, and said, "Master Li? The older brother of my sister-in-law?"

Lin Ruhai nodded and said: "I knew Brother Li would be released, but I didn't expect that he would come to Gusu to be the magistrate. Although it is a transfer at the same level, it should not be underestimated. We must prepare some congratulatory gifts and send someone Send it."

When Jia Min was in the capital, he also met Mrs. Li's parents-in-law and others with Mrs. Li, and they had a very friendly relationship, so she quickly agreed.
