[Quick Crossing + Red Mansions] I have a strong desire to survive

Lin Ruhai didn't know that it was a few girls who looked at the master and wife who had been indifferent and thought it was nothing. Today they dared to persuade them and dared not stay in the room.At this time, I imagined that Jia Min had to push himself to the two aunts because of his duties as the main wife, and then he was so sad that he entered the main room with the curtain closed.

Jia Min was still thinking, turning a blind eye to Lin Ruhai who came in through the curtain.In Lin Ruhai's eyes, it was the wife who was still worried about seeing the two aunts, so she couldn't help but stepped forward to hold her hand:

"I've already made it clear to the two of them that it was my idea to let them out of the mansion this time. Don't hold grudges on you. I will personally ask the housekeeper to send them out of the mansion tomorrow. You don't have to come forward again."

The sudden grabbing of his hand already made Jia Min startled. Hearing Lin Ruhai's explanation that seemed to be a show of merit, Jia Min didn't know whether he should shake off his hand again.If I understand correctly, Lin Ruhai is showing his loyalty to him, right?

Seeing that Jia Min had nothing to say, but still looking at him fixedly, Lin Ruhai had mixed feelings in his heart. He had really misunderstood his wife. How could his wife not care about him?

Jia Min, who was taken aback by Lin Ruhai, felt that it was better not to dwell on the topic of his aunt, and brought up that topic again: "Which prince will the sage deal with today?"

The sudden interruption of warmth made Lin Ruhai feel that Madam was embarrassed, and shook his head tolerantly: "Today, the sage told Jia Min about the sage's reaction, without the slightest bit. I didn't think there was anything wrong with that.

Jia Min couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat when he heard it: "In this way, Lord Shangshu will be wary of the master, and maybe he will tell the princes about the errand that the master is doing now."

Lin Ruhai dared to speak about his errands in front of the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he had already thought it through: "Master Shangshu has a very close relationship with the First Prince because of the relationship between the former Zuo Shilang. The eldest prince alone."

This great emperor has really recruited a lot of people in the court.Jia Min thought to himself, maybe the eldest prince is the Yizhong prince who broke things in the book, and not the prince as many fan authors thought?But thinking about Qin Keqing, he felt that it didn't make sense, so he had to wait and see what happened.

The emperor didn't make Jia Min wait for too long, he had not only Jin Yiwei but also dark guards in his hand, he didn't want to investigate, the actions of the princes were hidden in the dark, now the emperor wants to investigate, he knows what the princes are doing behind the scenes It's just a few days' work.

After this investigation, the emperor directly imprisoned the eldest prince, and locked the fourth and fifth princes in the prince's office to contemplate their mistakes.It's not that the courtiers wanted a reason, so the emperor was directly imprisoned in Dali Temple. At that time, all the officials in Beijing and China were in danger, and no one dared to discuss Lin Ruhai's report to the Ministry of Accounts for borrowing bank accounts.

With both the First Prince and the Fourth Prince getting into trouble, especially the First Prince being imprisoned, the Rongqing Hall was filled with gloom and mist.Mother Jia had already asked Mrs. Wang to go back to Wang's house to ask Wang Ziteng for news, but she got the news that Jia Yuanchun had been sent to Xinzheku.

"During the palace banquet last time, the imperial concubine said she would try to point Yuan Chun to the fourth prince, why did she go to Xinzheku?" Mother Jia couldn't believe the news: "But someone misrepresented it?"

Mrs. Wang broke the news while crying, and when she heard Jia Mu's question, she shed tears even more urgently: "I also hope that someone misrepresented it, but the fourth prince has been ordered by the sage to contemplate behind closed doors, where is Zhen Guifei? There is no news at all.”

Jia Mu leaned on the pillow in a slump, "Why is the First Prince imprisoned all of a sudden?"

Mrs. Wang resented: "My brother heard that it was because Lin Ruhai checked what officials borrowed money, and the eldest prince and his natal family borrowed the most money."

Jia Zheng couldn't sit still when he heard this: "Old lady, our house also has loans. Could it be because of this that the sage punished Yuan Chun to go to Xinzheku?"

Jia Mu thought about it and shook her head: "Yuanchun was selected to enter the palace by the small election, and the general election entered the palace. How many people were left behind by the saint in a few days, not to mention that the palace ladies are managed by Concubine Zhen, and the saint will never directly Punish Yuanchun."

Although she didn't want to admit it, and even though she wanted to make Yuan Chun a fortune, Jia Mu also knew that the emperor really wouldn't deliberately embarrass a little court lady.

Mrs. Wang felt that Jia Zheng's words were not unreasonable: "Although Yuan Chun was chosen by Xiaoxuan, the imperial concubine did not say that she would find an opportunity to let her be a female official. Maybe someone didn't like Yuan Chun, so that's why..."

Jia's mother didn't even have the strength to shake her head, she turned her gaze to Jia Zheng: "Zheng'er, even if Lin Ruhai's investigation started, you still have to go to his place and find out if there is room for the eldest prince to change things." If not, it is better to plan early.Jia's mother had already heard that Concubine Zhen had announced that Jia Min had entered the palace two days ago, so she might be able to inquire about Yuan Chun from Jia Min.

Jia Zheng didn't want to bow his head to Jia Min, but Jia's mother persuaded him that the Rongguo Mansion was alive and dead, so she reluctantly went to the Lin Mansion.I don't want Menzi to tell him that the master has been invited to the Yamen by the Minister of the Household Department, and I don't know if he can go back to the mansion today.As for meeting your wife?I'm sorry, my wife doesn't see the outsider.

Jia Zheng was so angry that he blushed and his neck was thick: "I am the elder brother of your wife's direct relative. There is no reason why my elder brother will not be seen when he comes."

The doorman of Lin's mansion looked at Jia Zheng carefully again, and ran in to report again. After waiting for half an hour, he came back panting: "Our wife asked this master, that is to say, our wife's real brother, can those Have all the slaves who killed our wife be disposed of?"

After hearing this, Jia Zheng shook his sleeves and left. After returning home, because of his anger, he was still breathless when he complained to Jia's mother: "It's just a few slaves. Her hands and feet are weak, and she is still so stubborn. Luckily, her father praised her for reading well. Others read wisely, but she even forgot the way of loyalty and forgiveness in reading."

After hearing this, Mother Jia didn't know whether she should cry or laugh, so she had to ask someone to invite Jia Amnesty over to discuss how to draw a line with the eldest prince and how to go to the Lin residence to inquire about news.When Jia Amnesty heard this, the sarcasm on his face didn't even cover up:

"Old lady, sister Min is your daughter. You should know that when she was not out of the court, she was usually gentle and docile, and she had to explain things clearly. So last time she sent her companion back, I said let the second I personally went to Yangzhou to apologize to her. The old lady can't bear the face of the second child, and when sister Min returns to Ning, she should also ask Mrs. Wang to apologize to sister Min."

"In the end, the old lady didn't even keep her, and let her leave the Duke's mansion so she doesn't have to enter the mansion again. With her temperament, I'm afraid even I will blame her. I don't want to make trouble for that."

Mother Jia was so angry that she slapped the kang table: "I heard that the princes were punished, and it was Lin Ruhai who checked the accounts. Our mansion also owes money to the treasury. Why don't we inquire about it?"

Jia She didn't care about it: "Our debts have nothing to do with what Lin Ruhai checked this time. The debts in the mansion were borrowed by the father-in-law on behalf of the emperor to support the wounded soldiers when the country was founded. Whenever the saint wants it, just move it out of Curry and return it."

Mother Jia was taken aback when she heard this: "Where did you hear that the Duke had already saved almost all the money he owed?" Obviously no one knew about this, so she opened her eyes to Wang's move of money from the treasury. With one eye closed.

Jia Amnesty looked at Jia's mother puzzled: "Of course my father told me. He told me that in case the old lady is worried, I don't need to disturb you, just let me know what's in my heart. Otherwise, the old lady thinks that we Why does the old Curry have 60 taels of silver, and he is not allowed to use it no matter how big it is?"

The cup in Mrs. Wang's hand clinked, and Jia Zheng also looked uncomfortable.Jia She suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Old lady, although the income of the Zhuangzi shop in our mansion is mediocre, it is enough for a year's expenses, so no one touches the money in the old treasury, right? "

How could no one move?Mother Jia waved her hand to Jia Amnesty even more feebly: "Forget it, you don't want to lose face and bow your head to your sister. I'm not afraid that she won't see me. I'll go outside their house tomorrow and ask her to see me."

The more she let Jia She go so easily, the more disturbed Jia She felt, and instead of going back to the East Courtyard as Jia's mother wanted, she had to go to the old treasury to see if the money was still there.

In Jia Amnesty's words, the money was used to save lives at the end of the mansion. As the head of the family, it was considered filial piety to listen to Jia Mu's words, but it was related to the life and death of the whole family, so he had to make plans for the continuation of the Rongguo Mansion's bloodline.

The result of opening the old warehouse can be imagined, only 60 taels of 19 taels of silver remained.Jia Amnesty's eyes turned red when he looked at Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, and he had to ask these two people to give him an explanation.Mother Jia didn't expect Mrs. Wang to be so courageous, and moved most of Ku Yin away, leaving only a small head for the mansion.

Mrs. Wang has always been the housekeeper, and she can't admit whether she didn't move the money herself, so she had to tell the story that Wang Ziteng borrowed 40 taels of silver from her because the eldest prince needed money urgently.

Who was present didn't know that the prince's use of silver, which he said was a loan, was actually a happy loss, and it was also the capital to board the ship.After questioning, Wang Ziteng didn't even write an IOU.Jia Amnesty rubbed his face, and sneered at Mother Jia: "This is the old lady's choice to be a good wife." After saying that, he walked away.

It was only then that Jia Zheng realized that the eldest prince Chang Shi was so polite to him, not because his talent was appreciated by the eldest prince, but because his uncle had already paid the road money for him. Jia Mu, I hope Jia Mu will come up with an idea soon.

What can Mother Jia do?Now that Lao Ku Yinzi did not see Jia Amnesty, he already knew that the words before he left were by no means a statement of the facts.I had no choice but to ask Mrs. Wang to discuss with Wang Ziteng to see if she could get some money back.

But Wang Ziteng scolded Mrs. Wang who asked him for money:

It is not a secret that the Rongguo Mansion and the Wangfu are standing in the same team as the First Prince. At this time, asking for money from the imprisoned First Prince, not to mention the fact that the First Prince who has no evidence, is impossible to give, just give it to you. Do you dare to continue?Do you know that the First Prince will be imprisoned for a lifetime?He is the emperor's own son, so it's a one-sentence thing to say, okay?

Mrs. Wang had no choice but to go back to the mansion in desperation to report to Jia Mu. On the second day, Jia Mu sighed and went to Lin Mansion to borrow money from Jia Min.Since Jia Min always said that relatives should hide each other in front of the emperor, no matter how tired Jia Min was, he had to let Jia Mu enter the Lin Mansion.Hearing what Jia's mother came for, he felt angry and funny, and asked Jia's mother: "What does the disaster caused by the Wang family have to do with me?"

Jia's mother was questioned by Jia Min's words, and wanted to say that Jia Zheng and Jia Min were siblings, brother and sister should support each other, and now that Jia Zheng has difficulties, Jia Min, as a younger sister, should help him.

I also want to say that Jia Min's natal family can only be confident when she is in the Lin family. Otherwise, if Lin Ruhai does something, Jia Min doesn't even have a helper.But seeing the undisguised sarcasm on Jia Min's face, Mother Jia felt a little guilty for no reason, so she said, "I didn't ask you to help Mrs. Wang. If the money is not prepared, in case the saint asks the governments to return the money someday, The Rongguo Mansion can..."

Hehe, this awareness is not bad.Jia Min looked at Jia Mu suspiciously. In the original book, she was all about enjoying herself. She never mentioned that the Rongguo Mansion still owed money to the treasury. The Grand View Garden where pleasure does not pay back money.

Jia's mother was extremely uncomfortable under Jia Min's gaze, and felt that since Jia Min gave birth to a son, she didn't take her mother's family seriously.Don't even think about it, she hasn't given birth to a son for more than ten years, and she can still be Mrs. Lin safely, isn't it all due to the power of the Rongguo Mansion?

Thinking of this, Mother Jia felt a little confident: "Although you are a married woman, I don't need to say more about the principle of prosperity and loss. Now the mansion can live with 60 taels of silver. After passing this hurdle, the rent can be paid back to you when the rent is collected.”

Jia Min thought about it, thinking that Mother Jia would not understand what he meant, so she decided to save a little effort by stating the facts to Mother Jia: "Old lady, I sent all the companions back to Beijing that day, and I also attached Didn’t the old lady not understand why the confession was made?”

"If the old lady had dealt with Mrs. Wang at that time, even if she was only asked to copy scriptures in her yard, maybe the 60 taels of silver would not have been transported out of the mansion without a sound, and the old lady would not have to pay for the mere 60 taels." Ten thousand taels of silver, just come to me and lie low."

Jia Min thought about it even more, this Mother Jia really opened her mouth like a lion, and she opened her mouth for 60 taels. Did Lin Ruhai really think that Lin Ruhai didn't tell her that the Rongguo Mansion only owed 60 taels of silver in total?This is the rhythm of letting myself take all the money from Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Min did not believe that Mrs. Wang had the courage to give all the money in the Rongguo Mansion to the First Prince.Among other things, as far as the money-spending skills of the men in Rongguo Mansion are concerned, if they don't keep any money, Mrs. Wang will have to reveal her secrets within three days.Besides, aren't Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang both making money well? Which one of them doesn't have a dowry?

That's right, Mrs. Wang was born in the East China Sea and lacked a white jade bed. The Dragon King came to invite the Wang family of the King of the South of the Yangtze River. The dowry must be quite a lot.Not to mention that Mrs. Wang has been in charge of the family for many years, and Jia Min didn't believe it when she said that she didn't draw money into her private house.

Jia Min felt that she should remind Mother Jia: "Old lady, since Mrs. Wang moved the money away, Mrs. Wang should ask for it back. You are so old, just eat what you want, and eat as much as you want." Have fun, don't worry about her."

That is to say, Jia Min didn't know under what circumstances his soul power would cause the shuttle machine to test abnormally, causing his soul to be pulled away, so now he dared not use his power easily.Otherwise, the last time she went back to Rongguo Mansion, she would directly set fire to Mrs. Wang's private treasury, and let her taste what she had gained and lost again.It's inconvenient for me to do it myself, but it doesn't mean that Jia Min will let Mrs. Wang's private room go, no, the opportunity is right in front of me.

Can Mother Jia not know that Mrs. Wang's private house is increasing day by day, but she really hasn't thought about Mrs. Wang's private house.From Jia's mother's point of view, Mrs. Wang's private houses belonged to her son Jia Zheng and grandson Jia Baoyu, so how could she take them out.The money owed was owed by the entire Rongguo Mansion.

"Your second elder brother didn't have a prominent official position and didn't inherit the title. In the future, he won't be able to divide the family. Baoyu is young, so he has to live on Wang's dowry." Said: "You can't let your second brother lose face once the family is separated."

Jia Min is no longer ready to correct this brain circuit, and continues to state the facts to Jia Mu: "Old lady, I also have Yu'er and Brother Tang."

Jia's mother also felt that Jia Min was unreasonable: since she told Jia Min about the money, Jia Min didn't say a word that the money didn't fit her hand, she just picked on Mrs. Wang.The attitude is obvious, either no money, or no borrowing.What kind of daughter is this, even if she has money, she doesn't know how to help her mother's family, but she wants to watch her family ransack the house and go to jail?

Two people came and went, those who wanted to borrow money talked to themselves, those who did not want to lend money just stated the facts, no one noticed that there were two small heads poking out from the inner room quietly.

They are Daiyu and brother Tang.They have been listening for a long time, and they understand that grandma is here to borrow money from mother, but mother does not lend money.Waiting for Mother Jia to start a new round of complaints, Daiyu gently took Brother Tang's hand, led him back to the bed and sat down, and saw Brother Tang's troubled little face.

"What's the matter?" Daiyu asked Brother Tang softly, afraid that Mother Jia would hear that their siblings were there.

Brother Tang frowned into a pimple, and said to Daiyu in a childlike voice: "Sister, I will ask the nanny to send my monthly report to my sister's room later, and give it to my sister. I don't want money from my sister."

Daiyu's heart warmed when she heard that, and she wanted to tell brother Tang that her mother would entrust all the money to her for safekeeping.And because my mother strictly ordered me to save money, I couldn't tell anyone about it, so my little face was flushed with anxiety, so I could only pat Brother Tang on the back: "Sister has money, Brother Tang's money Keep it for yourself, buy whatever you want, and ask your sister if you don’t have enough.”

Brother Tang kept shaking his head: "I'm a man, I should protect my sister and spend money for her." That's what my mother told herself. It must be that my uncle has been asking my mother for money. Ask my sister for money.

Jia Min didn't know that he was with brother Tang, and successfully discredited Jia Zheng, and by the way, Jia She was put down, and he had no affection for the two uncles.Now I am emptying my mind, treating Jia Mu's words as flowing air, letting her talk for herself, and not even making statements.

Jia Mu is the biological mother of the original owner. In this era of filial piety, she can neither prevent Jia Mu from entering the mansion nor drive Jia Mu out of the mansion. She can only adopt this attitude of non-violence and non-cooperation.

Anyway, the money was in her hands, and Mother Jia couldn't order someone to open the warehouse of the Lin family to move the money by herself, so she had to return without success. Even Jia Yuanchun forgot to ask Jia Min why Jia Yuanchun was sent to Xinzheku to work as an errand.

After sending Jia Mu away, Jia Min's bones were all stiff, and he felt that he still had to find a way to tear himself apart with Jia Mu.I wanted to go to the inner room to rest for a while, but I heard that Daiyu and brother Tang were still arguing about who should spend money for whom.

Listening to the modest conversation between the two children, Jia Min couldn't help laughing.Mother Jia came suddenly, and she didn't want Mother Jia to make a fuss about the two children, so she didn't let Daiyu siblings come out to see Mother Jia.Unexpectedly, their siblings actually listened to the conversation between themselves and Jia Mu, and had their own ideas.

But Jia Min still wants to guide one or two, lest the siblings lose their hearts in the future: "Do you think that mother doesn't care about family affection, and doesn't care about the life and death of grandma's family?"

Brother Tang shook his little head from side to side: "My sister told me that the second wife of the Jia family almost killed me, but my grandmother didn't seek justice for me, so my mother ignored them. It's not that my mother doesn't care about family affection." , because the Jia family didn’t treat us as relatives first.”

Daiyu then nodded to Jia Min.She could never forget the shock she received when her mother lay on the bed with a pale face and said to her father, "No one wants to harm my child".From then on, Daiyu knew that the only person in the world who supported their siblings most was their mother.

Jia Min held the two children in her arms: "Yes, if others treat us well, we will repay them double. If others treat us badly, we don't have to feel sad for the irrelevant people, and try our best to make ourselves live better. Good. There is no need to think about repaying grievances with kindness, some people in this world are full of dissatisfaction."

Brother Tang shouted: "I know, I know, my sister said that they are Sheng Mien and Dou Michou, and people are not popular enough." Jia Min and Daiyu both laughed when they said that.

Jia Min didn't deliberately hide Lin Ruhai either, anyway, she didn't feel that Jia's mother would lose face when she came to borrow money, and she didn't think it was unfilial if she didn't lend money to Rongguo Mansion.After hearing this, Lin Ruhai only said: "It seems that Jia Zheng has a lot to do with the First Prince, otherwise he wouldn't be so afraid of the saint asking the Rongguo Mansion for money from the treasury."

Jia Min felt wrong after hearing this: "Could it be that the sage doesn't intend to let the ministers pay back the money?"

Lin Ruhai nodded: "The sage is always lenient." There was a rare irony in his tone.

It's not about saving face and suffering.Jia Min despised the emperor in his heart, but he was even more worried about Lin Ruhai's situation: "If the sage makes the ministers pay back the money, the master will be considered meritorious. Otherwise, no matter how well the master finds out, it will just scare those people for a while."

Lin Ruhai knew very well that the people from the First Prince's faction had already blamed himself for the Great Emperor's confinement.Regardless of the fact that no one dares to say a word about himself now, if the emperor delays in letting the courtiers pay back the money, in a few days someone will go to the bullet and tell him to alienate his own flesh and blood from the Tian family.In case the emperor showed some hesitation, he would become the target of criticism from all the borrowers.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but become serious when he thought that after being criticized, although some people in the same year might say a few words for him, but they were as difficult to lean on as driftwood.
