Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

After sending Daiyu to the palace, Sister Feng was busy with Zhuangzi's account reconciliation at the end of the year and the shop's year-end general ledger every day.Without Daiyu's help, Sister Feng recruited Feng'er back, and with Feng'er's help with Lonicera and Pinellia, Sister Feng and Ping'er were able to breathe a little.Sister Feng continued to go to Mr. Su's class with her daughter every day, Ying'er went to Jia She's to take care of Brother Wei in the afternoon, and Sister Feng took care of the housework.All three meals are served in Jia She's front yard, and Jia She is accompanied by her daughter and son.

After dinner that day, Jia Amnesty sent Jia Cong to take Ying and Wei to play.Seeing that Jia Amnesty had something to say, Jia Lian sent all the maids away.

Jia Amnesty said to Jia Lian and Sister Feng, "Sister Ying and Brother Wei are good-natured children, you should take good care of them."

The husband and wife stood in front of Jia She, and were taught with their hands tied.

"Feng girl, don't be afraid that there will be a rivalry between brothers because of the matter between me and your uncle. At the beginning, the old Duke and uncle fought hand in hand in the battlefield. In my father's generation, the East and West are still like brothers. "Jia She's tone became sour, "Father and your uncle have reached the point where they are today. The reason is that they are too narrow-minded, and the old lady is confused. Feng girl looks at the three brothers of the Zhang family. They are already cousins. Support each other. Looking at Lin Ruhai, even if he had cousins, he would not be in the situation he is today."

Sister Feng hurriedly blessed her body and saluted: "What the father said is that the daughter-in-law is biased."

"Blessed is Lian'er. You have favored me since she was a child. I was very relieved to be a father at that time, knowing that Lian'er's life is safe. In the future, you and Lian'er must be of the same mind."

Jia Lian and Sister Feng hurriedly agreed, feeling a little ominous.

"Lian'er, don't blame your father for neglecting you for so many years. In fact, your survival is more important than anything else."

After hearing this, Jia Lian immediately knelt down in front of Jia She's knees with tears in his eyes.

"Get up, your old man is fine. I'll share the matter with you while I understand." Jia Lian obediently stood up.

"Go and call Cong'er in."

Sister Feng changed Jia She for a cup of hot water, Jia Lian went and called Jia Cong in, and the three of them stood in front of Jia She.

Jia She continued: "Lian'er, you are kind-hearted and soft-hearted. After five generations, it is not surprising that you will be either like you or Jia Zhen. You will be the head of this branch in the future. Remember In a word, from now on, the children of the Jia family are cautious about the people in the house; only when they are thirty childless can they allow the concubine to have a son. From now on, Feng girl will not learn from the old lady and the second wife. If it is not for her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to fight, one on the left and one on the right People in the house in Disai, why did your big brother Zhu die so young; if you are a father, you are not greedy for the small and docile people in the house, why would you not have a holiday."

Jia Lian and Sister Feng quickly agreed, and so did Jia Cong.

"Woman is always a knife, Lian'er, Cong'er, remember it well. When Brother Wei grows up, teach him to remember it well. Nothing is more important than being able to live and live well. Take your children back Alright, brother Liu Cong will be fine."

The husband and wife bowed and took their leave, and took the child back to their yard.

Jia Amnesty said to Jia Cong gently: "Cong'er, have you benefited from studying in the Zhang family in the past few years?"

Jia Cong nodded. A handsome boy of twelve or thirteen years old is at the age of indisputable male and female.Jia Amnesty looked at Jia Cong's handsome face and couldn't remember what his aunt looked like.The concubines in the east courtyard came and went, and few of them stayed for more than two years.And Jia Cong's biological mother, who was able to conceive him and give birth to him with Bizitang, was very scheming, but unfortunately she was not lucky enough to survive.

"As a father, your body is getting worse day by day. From now on, your eldest brother will be like a father. You have to listen to your second elder brother Lian and your sister-in-law."

Jia Cong knelt down, weeping uncontrollably, seeing Jia She's weakening day by day, he was more terrified than anyone else.Jia Amnesty stroked the top of Jia Cong's head, everyone congratulated him on getting a son when he was old, but how could he know the worries of the father leaving the son when he was young.

"The Zhang family is the uncle's family of your second elder brother Lian. For the sake of your second elder brother Lian, the Zhang family will not wrong you. You should go to the Zhang family to study in the future. The world has been peaceful for a long time, and you should work hard on the imperial examination." , Find a way. The Jia family taught that the concubine will move out of the mansion after three months to six months of marriage. As a father, you will have full authority over your life's affairs. Your sister-in-law is a righteous one, and she will not wrong you."

Jia Cong hugged Jia She's leg and cried.He was like weeds, growing up in the East Campus, he was loved and taught by his father with great difficulty, but he didn't expect the good times to be so short.

"Get up, you're still alive and well for your father. Big boy, why don't you act like a little girl crying and crying?"

Jia Cong stood up, still sobbing.

"You were taught by your father, remember?"

"Father, son remembers."

"Say."

"In the future, elder brother will be like a father, and he will listen to his elder brother and his sister-in-law; he will go to Zhang's family to study hard. Zhang's family is his brother's uncle's house, so he will not wrong me for my elder brother's sake; I went to find my way; after I got married, I moved out of the mansion; my sister-in-law is honest and will not wrong me in matters of life."

"Good boy, remember these words, live well, don't let your branch break." Jia She said to Jia Cong the words he remembered in his heart.

Jia She took a sandalwood box from behind and gave it to Jia Cong: "Cong'er, my father will divide the family between your brothers when he is alive. You are a concubine, so there should be more or less ancestral rules. The things in the box , it is for your father to subsidize you, you have to keep it. If you fail the imperial examination, you will have someone to rely on in the future, and your life will be better than those in the back porch."

Jia Cong knelt down and kowtowed to Jia She. Jia She waved his hand and let him go down.

Jia Cong went back to his room and opened the sandalwood box, which contained the deeds of three shops.One is in the downtown area, with a ten-year lease and an annual income of one hundred taels of silver.The two shops in the outer city also have a ten-year lease, and together they have an income of nearly a hundred taels of silver.

Jia Cong put away the box. Jia Cong is not Baoyu who doesn't know about human fireworks, firewood, rice, oil and salt. He knows too well what an annual income of 200 taels means to a family.Thinking of his father's long-term considerations for himself, Jia Cong hid under the quilt and burst into tears.

When Jia Lian and Sister Feng returned to their room, neither of them was in the mood to laugh, but Brother Wei was not yet three years old, so it was time for him to be lively and playful.Brother Wei dragged his sister to run around the house, Ping'er quickly greeted the maid, moved everything away, and carefully protected her from touching anything.

"Ping'er, you look like an eagle guarding its chicks."

Ying'er became happy when she heard that, "Aunt Ping, let's play eagle and chicken."

Sister Feng hurriedly moved all the fragile things away, and Ping'er took the siblings and a group of little girls to play with the eagle and catch the chicks.

Jia Lian and Sister Feng looked at it with a smile on their faces. It was Xu time when the group was arguing, and Sister Ying and Brother Wei promised in every possible way that they would play tomorrow in Ping'er, and then they asked the nanny to go to bed.

Jia Lian hugged Brother Wei and said to Sister Feng: "Feng'er, wash up first, I'll see Brother Wei off, and then I'll see my father."

Sister Feng didn't wait long, and Jia Lian came back. "Second Master, what's going on ahead?"

"Father is happy to see Brother Wei."

Ping'er waited on Jia Lian to wash up, and Sister Feng carefully considered what Jia She said, and had to admit that what Jia She said was more reasonable.When Jia Lian hugged Sister Feng and said to have another son, Sister Feng didn't object.

Early the next morning, Sister Feng quietly said to Jia Lian and Ping'er, "Ping'er, you can go to Gao Gong and show you. You should have a daughter too. It would be better to have more children at home."

Jia Lian and Heping'er were so surprised that they thought that Sister Feng had run into something evil.Jia Lian felt that Sister Feng didn't have a fever, and Sister Feng knocked off Jia Lian's claw with her backhand, "Don't want to? That's fine."

Jia Lian quickly cupped his hands and bowed, "Thank you, Second Grandma, for your kindness."

Ping'er also knelt down and kowtowed to Sister Feng. Sister Feng sighed and helped Ping'er up.

Not to mention the changes in Rong Guohou's mansion.Sure enough, within two days, Lin Zhixiao approached Jia Lian and talked about the Lin family's property.Jia Lian was still somewhat polite to Lin Zhixiao, "Housekeeper Lin, when I went to handle Uncle Lin's funeral, I and the housekeeper of the Lin family sorted out the Lin family's wealth. When they entered the Rongguo Mansion's warehouse, they were also registered and checked one by one. According to national law, [-]% of the property of extinct families belongs to the imperial court, and the other [-]% belongs to the clan and unmarried daughters. There are no one in the Lin family, and the rest is the cousin's dowry."

"Second Lord, do you know the reason why the Ministry of Households checks the property of the Lin family?"

"My father promised a marriage to Sister Lin. He is the second son of Cheng Yin, Minister of the Ministry of Officials. He won a scholar this year. The wedding date is set for next year. The housekeeper should know that Mr. Cheng is today's confidant. For his son and daughter-in-law... "

Lin Zhixiao nodded, expressing his understanding.

"There is one more thing. The housekeeper should know that the list of the Lin family's property is in triplicate, and I have one copy in my hand today."

Lin Zhixiao took a deep breath, the Rongguo Mansion moved a lot of things for the provincial relatives, this time it was a big trouble.
