Zong Qiongyao's beautiful jade is flawless

Allow the concubine to visit her relatives?After all, the relatives of the Empress and Concubine Yi are not in the capital, so it is unrealistic to visit relatives; and Concubine Shen is an almost transparent person in the harem, and Niu Yulu's family has been hit hard a few days ago, and now it is a lot more low-key .So the ones who really know how to visit relatives should be the concubines of the Supreme Emperor.

Look at the toffees again:

The highest-ranking concubine Shugui, Yehenala, and Xingui, Daijia, are both common surnames in Manchuria. They were brought up by aristocratic families, and they have been in the deep palace for many years. They still have the vision they should have.Concubine visiting relatives has never been a thing. Although the new emperor is benevolent and filial, there must be demons when things go wrong. Now that the emperor and the courtiers, they should be careful as concubines. , don't capsize in the gutter in the end, those glory also depends on whether you have a life to enjoy.Moreover, they are old and have reached this position, so they don't want to fight for this point of face.Especially Concubine Shu Taigui has thought about it in private. Anyway, she has been in the palace for so many years. Even if she misses home and goes back, she can only sigh. If she has this spare money to build a family-saving villa, she might as well discount it all for herself and Princess Ke in the future. dowry.

Concubine Qing's Lu family is of Han origin, entered the palace in the early years of Qianlong, and now raises her fifteenth elder brother Yongyan, expressing that she, like Concubine Shu, does not intend to visit her relatives.Her family is just a small official position, unless there is corruption, how can there be any spare money to build a family-saving villa?And she has always seen it clearly, otherwise she would not have taken refuge in Kunning Palace early, and would only be able to obtain Yongyan's parenting rights later.Now she just waits for Yongyan to be old enough to start a mansion. As long as Yongyan does not rebel in the future, with his status as the youngest son of the Supreme Emperor and the kindness of the new emperor, he can get the seat of an idle prince, her private house But they are all reserved for Yongyan to start the mansion.

Concubine Wan, Mrs. Chen, served in Qianlong Qianlong's residence. Now she can be said to be the oldest among the toffees. If she hadn't given birth and never been favored and was born as a Han, how could the seat of the noble dowager be difficult? She is indispensable.She has always been used to being transparent, and she doesn't intend to get involved in the matter of visiting relatives.

According to Concubine Yiergenjueluo, she entered the palace not long ago, even a few years older than Yongxie.At that time, the battle among the princes in the palace was almost heated up. She only got a concubine with a good surname and knowledge and taste. She had no love or children, so naturally she would not interfere with those things.Now there is a noble concubine Ga Lu Dai who has the same surname as her and has a good relationship with her. She felt something wrong, and originally wanted to call the imperial physician, but said that she was not fit to move around.But Yongzhen felt that it was too fake for everyone not to go, so he asked Galudai to discuss with Concubine Xun, and also go to visit his relatives once, but it doesn't need to be too ostentatious.Concubine Xun was younger after all, and she missed her family, so she complied, and ordered the family not to make large-scale construction projects, but only clean up the best Zhuangzi in the family for family visits.

> So except for the remaining concubines and nobles who are too often around, either they are low-ranking or have no conditions at home, the most happy ones in the end are the newly promoted virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun and her Jia family.

The Jia family is so happy, the big construction in the family is bound to show the face of the four big families, so that the girls in the palace will also have face, at least this time they will compare with the concubine Xun, who is also the concubine, right? When the empress gains power, she can take care of her family even more.

It's just that it's not easy to build the family-speaking villa, every workmanship and material, every plant and every tree, where does it cost money?Not to mention that after it is built, it can't be left there empty?Those antique furnishings, gold and jade gadgets, rolling curtains and bead curtains, bedside desks, antique calligraphy and paintings in those houses were bought randomly on the street?

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth, no matter what, visiting relatives is more important, everything should be considered for the empress's face.Mrs. Wang scratched at her small treasury, feeling reluctant to part with it. There were so many years in charge of the Jia family's finances in it, as well as the things sent by the Zhen family that had been confiscated, but she just couldn't bear to part with it.In her opinion, what went into the small treasury was hers, and it was all for Baoyu, and she felt distressed when she used it.

As soon as she rolled her eyes, Mrs. Wang took it to heart, right!Doesn't she have another younger sister who married into Xue's family?The Xue family has lived here for a few years, and they often do things in the name of the Rong Mansion outside. Now that they have something to do here, it is appropriate to ask them to contribute.The Xue family is an imperial merchant, known as "a good year with heavy snow, pearls like earth and gold like iron".There is also the Lin family, no matter how you say it is also a scholarly family that has been noble for generations. You can tell by the way Jia Min came dressed in the past. He must have a family background, let alone Lin Ruhai stayed in the fat job of patrolling the salt censor again. so many years.

Mrs. Wang thought about it and started to plan. She deliberately mentioned Daiyu when she went to pay her respects to Jiamu, and vaguely mentioned that Daiyu would go to the general election in a short time. Being busy, and Jia Min still has a young son to take care of, it is inevitable that Daiyu will be neglected; it happens that Baochai and Yingchun will also participate in the small election this time, so the sisters can just be companions, and it would be great if Daiyu has a good manner around her. Well, Mother Zhuersu, if Daiyu is invited, Mother Zhuersu can also teach Baochai and Yingchun just in time, and if they can make good fortune, Rongguo Mansion will have more face, right?When Daiyu comes, she can borrow some things and money from the Lin family to support the princess.

Mother Jia still had more thoughts in her mind, but she didn't think about ignoring the things of the Lin family, but she hadn't let go of her plan to let Baoyu and Daiyu marry each other, thinking that Daiyu would marry Baoyu, and those things would be considered as dowry.

Now Baoyu has a direct sister who is a concubine, and her identity is better. It doesn't matter if she wears a coat. Jia Min married Lin Ruhai only after raising the flag.When Daiyu was in the general election, as long as she found a relationship and entrusted someone, it would not be difficult to get married by herself. With the relationship between the two relatives and Baoyu's knowledge, she was not afraid that Daiyu's life would be unsatisfactory in the future, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Therefore, Mother Jia agreed with Mrs. Wang's opinion, and just sent a letter to Lin's residence. The words in the letter were very tactful, just expressing how she missed Daiyu's sister and brother.At the end of the letter, it is said that the house is currently building a family-saving villa, waiting for the virtuous concubine to come.This is a great joy for the Jia clan, and I hope it will be an honor to pick up Daiyu.

It's a pity that no matter how well Jia's mother thought, the Lin family didn't want it. With the teaching of Zhu Ersu, Daiyu didn't understand now. Reading the letter, she was very bored with the Jia family.In the past few years, although the relationship between the Linjia family has not been broken, but the Lin family is gradually alienating the Rong family, Daiyu doesn't believe that the old lady can't see it.Now pointing to Yuanchun's family visit and coming to pick him up, he thought it was just a cover.Is the real reason for coming... Daiyu herself went to Rongfu with Jia Min before, and it was only a meal time to let her know that everything in that mansion is luxurious and exquisite, but she is just living on her ancestors' old book.To build a villa where the imperial concubine can visit relatives, I am afraid that there is insufficient energy.

Fortunately, the Lin family didn't even need to think of excuses if they wanted to stay far away from the Jia family. The saint is gone, Madam and Miss are invited by Empress Empress/Emperor Concubine/Princess Hejing to..." Anyway, people are not there, as for what to do, they are always the same.

Time was urgent, Mrs. Wang really couldn't wait for the Lin family, so she had no choice but to let go of this piece of fat, and concentrated on lobbying her sister, Aunt Xue, only saying that she preferred Baochai, Baochai would marry Baoyu sooner or later, and now she gave the dowry to Baoyu in advance. That's all Jia's.

Moreover, Mrs. Wang also had the idea of ​​Jia's mother. Jia's mother had successively served the two masters, Empress Xiao Jingxian and Empress Xiao Huaixian, otherwise she would not have been married to Rong Guogong by Empress Xiaohuaixian.Of course, what Mother Jia got was not only face, but also a lot of rewards from her master. Which of the things in her private house is not good?If you don’t take it out now, why don’t you bring it into the coffin after you die?She has always loved her grandchildren, and when the time comes, she will be able to ask for it.

Mrs. Wang ran to Mother Jia and cried loudly. Rongguo Mansion is now in a difficult situation. When she and Wang Xifeng were housekeepers, they put in a lot of dowry. He also lost the face of the empress and begged the ancestors to blame.

Mother Jia looked at the account book handed over by Mrs. Wang, she was shocked, and she sighed that the Rongguo Mansion had fallen to this point, and the old man called her maid, Yuanyang, with tears, and handed over her private house to Mrs. Wang, saying that she should not be underestimated. Otherwise, it will be more difficult for the empress in the palace in the future.

The old and dazed mother of Jia did not see Mrs. Wang who had achieved her goal and was going out

A satisfied smile.

...In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, looking at the brochures about Jia's mansion handed over from the sticky pole, and the income in the account books just sent by the shop under his hands, Yong Xing rarely loses his composure, laughing like flowers blooming , with a look of financial fanatics on his face, as if he wanted to take the abacus and figure it out.

Qianlong looked at Yongzhen with a funny face: "Do you need to be so happy?"

"Happy! Of course I want to be so happy, just look at it." Yong Xin glanced at Qianlong with "you really don't know what to do", then nestled in Qianlong's arms and continued to flip through the account books, pointing to the numbers inside : "All kinds of precious wood, calligraphy and painting, decorations, I have prepared these things early in the morning, and I am just waiting for today. Moreover, Duolong and Haoxiang who went overseas also came back, and they specially brought a lot of them. Overseas handicrafts have been sold to the Jia family at almost double the price this time. Not only are the best items I sell, but they are also the most expensive. This time, the Jia family and the Xue family have almost been emptied. The family-speaking villa has not been fully built yet, and the Jia family will probably have to ask the Wang family and historians for help in the future."

"Hmph, this is a huge amount, and these aristocratic families are really not afraid of attracting attention." Qianlong also flipped through the account books: "It's almost time when the relatives are over, and these properties came at the right time. Bai is not very quiet, so he is preparing for military pay."

====================================================================== =================

The author has something to say: People in Jia's mansion daydream all kinds of things, and Yong Xin looks at his pocket and smiles complacently.

PS. I suddenly found that Qianlong and Yongzheng seem to have different ages and it’s okay. I even checked the information. Yongzheng was born on April 17th of the lunar calendar in the 1752th year of Qianlong (25), and the noble concubine Yiergenjueluo was born in the 23rd year of Qianlong ( 1758) was born on the 50th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, which means that in history, Concubine Xun was six years younger than Yongzheng; while Qianlong was born on the 1711rd day of the eighth month in the 23th year of Kangxi (41), 47 years older than Yongzheng, and 41 years older than Yongzheng. Concubine Xun is 28 years old; the most depressing thing is that neither Yongzheng nor Concubine Xunlong had a long life in Qianlong, Yongzheng died on the [-]th day of the first month in the [-]st year of Qianlong, and Concubine Xun died in the second year of Jiaqing... Orz has no morals Of course age is not a problem.

However, for the sake of beauty, a certain cat still adjusted its age. Even if an old cow eats tender grass, he still needs a beautiful old cow. Sure enough, he shouldn't check the information, and he is so depressed.
